The things one does for daughters. I made a quilt for our eldest. It was panels of garden flowers. Each panel was free hand embroidered. It took me ages and ages. Sadly my arthritis stopped me from making one for the other girls. No photo of it either which is sad. She still has it though.

I made this card for my cousin's little grand daughter, she'll be 2 yrs old next week ...
There are several in the bin, that went wrong lol !

The colours look a bit dull on here but they are brighter on the card itself.
The words say 'Happy Birthday'.

The back ...

I sent the wrong test file so the editor has worked on the wrong ms. Taken me all day to go through what he has worked on and make it match the correct file. Made a lot of work for the editor.
