New Design
My latest design is done from a photograph I took some time ago of our Church & Community Hall. As our "Come Home Year" celebrations are being held this year in August, I decided I would hook a few mats of things concerning my community.
I post this picture with a heavy heart today because it is my dear Mother-in-Law's Birthday; she would have been 92 years old today. Each time I designed a new mat, I would take it to let her see what I had done and of course, she always marveled at my work. She was very proud of the fact that she taught me how to hook many years ago, and I am so appreciative of that. According to her, there was never a thing I could change to make it look better. I hope she can still see what I am doing....R.I.P. dear Mother.....

Anne, your dear Mother, left a legacy in your art and that will live on.
ReplyDeleteI love the Come Home Year mat and just to let you know that the Icons of NL have sold over 1000 tickets so far. The draw is in August, and I will keep you posted!
Very nice mat, and very nice sentiment! She was lucky to have such a caring daughter-in-law!!
