I would like to add my little story connected to Laroche and Le Géographe.
The other day at the vernissage for an art exhibition at our local art salon I met the sister of Sandra Laroche! She is an watercolourist. Her name is Barbara Månsson and she has been living in Sweden all her adult life. For a week once a year she and her sister Sandra meet in Paris from each side of the world, Australia and Sweden.
I got star struckwhen she told me about her sister and we talked about Sandra's works for Hermès, where Le Géograph is the scarf they both value the most. Barbara told that she wears hers only at special occasions.
I asked if I could post these pictures in the Scarf thread where Sandra and Le Géograph are presented. She liked the idea!
The lady in red is Barbara. I was volunteering at the exhibition. Barbara's tango dancers on the wall.

I imagine the sisters Sandra Laroche (blue) and Barbara Månsson (green) with a friend (red) in a Paris café.

I was interested in the bleu chine cw, but it wasn't in yet, and this rose red captured my heart.
I adore that painting! The three ladies are so chic!I would like to add my little story connected to Laroche and Le Géographe.

Thank you!Saw Kang ought to, right? Weekend dans l'Espace? I like your thinking!
Ooh.. thank you! Lab is on my wishlist. Must make greater effort to snare one!Oh I do have one more uSA scarf. When I don’t seem to have anything to fit the weekly theme, this scarf usually has something!
lab du temps. Superman, Columbus, native Americans and Even has an astronaut from 1969 walking on the moon. Just for @xincinsin
And the 1982 bubble- is that pong?View attachment 4482546 View attachment 4482547 View attachment 4482549 P View attachment 4482551
I love your Shackletons!
There is? I'll just go whip out that virtual magnifying glass and scour Animapolis again...This scarf design has everything @xincinsin! (By the way, there's also an astronaut in Animapolis.)![]()
Merci! It will be a challenge to get the dragon in view and in front.AWESOME! Looks so much better on you than guy model!
I adore that painting! The three ladies are so chic!
Thank you!
Wondering now, should I hold out for a black cw of Weekend? I think @ABQ2ATL mentioned once that it was the cw most reminiscent of actual "in space".

Tour du Monde en 63 Cases has a rocket ship in one of the squares, but no astronaut.

Hi dear, I will post my reply on the Color thread to avoid OT here!Ah, love this one too L., but I wonder how you compare it to that other yellow/grey stunner, Samourai. I have an hypothesis that H sometimes repeats color combinations over the years (to be sure, less literally than the new color themes of the last few seasons) and find myself thinking 'now where have I seen that combo before?' (Ebay often serves as a sort of flash card system for me.) Unfortunately, I usually can't remember, LOL! In this case, I've had your EA on my radar since I first saw it ages ago and I think you are twins with @Croisette7. It seems brighter to me than Samourai, the yellow border perhaps? Do you find that you can reach for them reasonably interchangeably?
So perfect, bunny!Squeaking in at the last moment since @scarf1 reminded us about Millefleurs de Mexique:
