Thanks for sharing it with us!!<br /><br />We are a family of seamstresses here too. My mother clothed us all while we were young and by 13 I was making my own clothing. I sewed for many years until I just couldn't keep up with kids, job, house and sewing too! <br /><br />Sometimes I look at my sewing machine and serger and swear I hear them calling my name, but I don't think the arthritis in my hands would make it very easy to thread the needles anymore.Annahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15484790262385862070noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4867412370878246352.post-42959531904328351642012-06-16T08:16:46.411-07:002012-06-16T08:16:46.411-07:00That's wonderful!

If you could know how this sort of thing is such a stretch for me--I have never been anything near a craft-er, much less an artist. So, multi-media is such an entirely new "arena" for me. Thanks for the encouragement!Barbarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15515359557758582980noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4867412370878246352.post-24282359949791916252012-06-15T19:43:29.775-07:002012-06-15T19:43:29.775-07:00How lovely!

My mother, also, was a wonderful seamstress, and painter, knitter, crocheter, bridge player, piano player and singer. Now she sits each day in a nursing home (over 3 years), sleeps, eats and tries to watch TV. Her hearing and vision are going, she has arthritis in her hands and knees, and can no longer do anything to bring her pleasure. My Dad died in January. They were married for 62 years last Christmas Eve. I know your sweet work of art will bring your Mother joy. {Sorry for rambling...}Gloriahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06015757650597567963noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4867412370878246352.post-68030984352969357162012-06-15T19:41:58.357-07:002012-06-15T19:41:58.357-07:00This is just an amazing piece and I'm sure you...This is just an amazing piece and I'm sure your Mother will love it!Kathy Eddyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09979487004605679756noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4867412370878246352.post-43618728104368095452012-06-15T19:32:27.647-07:002012-06-15T19:32:27.647-07:00I'm oozing with excitement here!!!!
