Our son-in-law from Quebec became an American citizen last month. Chelsea flew down from New Hampshire this past weekend for her sister's birthday and I was finally able to give her this little rug to take home. I hooked it as a nod to Simon's heritage. It is designed by Isabelle Rollin of Quebec and is titled, "Sugar Shack". I thought this design fitting as a gift for them because Simon told me once that being Quebecois meant that maple syrup runs through his veins instead of blood.
Chelsea and Simon also have friends in New Hampshire who own Kearsarge Gore Farm. I had an opportunity to visit their wonderful sugar shack a few years ago. Their syrup is delicious. My little quilly wood pile does not accurately represent the true size of their wood pile. It was enormous!
