London mementos

[Note: I was working on this post a week or so ago, but then other ideas—see below—presented themselves. Thanks to Henry for showing me how to alter the posting date and get this in the right place—what a neat trick!]

It's a little late, but I finally took all my memento ticket stubs out and put them on my souvenirs quilt, right next to my desk, where I can travel down memory lane any time I want.

Here's a picture of the quilt. If you click on the image, you can see a much larger version.


And here's a list of the London items, with links to the blog post where I talked about the event. How many can you find?
Note that almost all of the items were for attractions I (or someone) paid for. All those free museum trips didn't generate ticket stubs.

Stumped? Here's a key, with the items as listed above noted in alphabetical order:


If you're curious about any of the other items on the quilt (some of them have some historical interest, and almost all come with a story), let me know in the comments.

Oh what fun! I asked my husband to keep all of his train tickets into London. After we're done here, I intend to make something out of all of them--there are A LOT!

It's so much fun to look at my collection and remember all the occasions represented. You'll have a pretty big installation with all those train tickets!
