Ah - this is a long story! My father has had vintage Paris buses since the 1970s (the buses themselves date back to the 30s) and over the years various people have helped him out with them in one way or another. When these people get together, alcohol gets drunk, and songs get sung. Some of these songs have developed some extra words over the years, and I want to get these down! Same principle with the stories, really.

I had a go at making a double quilt as part of my last list - it's not finished yet, but I reckon I'll have it finished by the time I start this one. Baby quilts are a lot smaller!
