How lovely, Lilith
Those are the kind of gifts we treasure the most.
I rested for a bit earlier, OK, it was an excuse to play with the threads lol. There are 20 of those, what I thought was rayon, skeins. Turns out they are vintage silk from the 1920's. What an honour to have these to stitch with. I saw one for sale online for 12 English pounds! And I was holding 20 of them. There will have to be a lot of thought before I use them. There was also a vintage crewel pattern (iron on) which I had photocopied so I might combine the two. Or I could design something of my own. I wish I knew what my mother-in-law had planned for them.

Life is a one time offer, use it wellÂ
