I'm sure whichever method you choose will be lovely. That Kathy Barrick A & E is darling. Is it a new design of hers? It looks wonderful in your sewing box! Such a great photo of Vilma! LOL!! She does look like her in that sweater.

Although it would be lovely, made up into a folded huswife, it would be so beautiful as a framed piece to display. <br /><br />I love the Kathy Barrick piece too and it looks really nice in that nice double frame.<br /><br />Your daughter looks so pretty in that sweater. I must admit that, I too, have one just like it in cranberry! I have a tough time parting with some of my 'vintage' clothing too.<br /><br />I know that you treasure those special days with your dear children, as they are so very special and dear to your heart.<br /><br />Blessings for a wonderful weekend!Kathy Ellenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10098056934345001536noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3789554235806283705.post-81102016014842792312013-08-09T08:02:07.912-07:002013-08-09T08:02:07.912-07:00Bonjour, je rentre de vacance !!! magnifiques brod...Bonjour, je rentre de vacance !!! magnifiques broderies comme toujours, bisous mon amie !<br /><br />MarylinPoussy Stitches My Lovehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17637982301786779161noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3789554235806283705.post-8977743882107363242013-08-09T07:52:35.455-07:002013-08-09T07:52:35.455-07:00Holy cow Margaret, that huswife is gorgeous!!

Adam and Eve looks great and I think it goes so very well with the Quaker in the opposite frame.<br />Cooler weather, that's what we were longing for as well. And now we have it, but it's paired with rain. I don't mind ...Brigittehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03922122091202289138noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3789554235806283705.post-69000940804009839812013-08-08T10:05:31.920-07:002013-08-08T10:05:31.920-07:00Congratulations on your pretty finishes, Margaret!...Congratulations on your pretty finishes, Margaret!
