Absolutely incredible Sue. It reminds me of the my mother’s profession of a seamstress here in the US who worked in a commercial factory on very expensive
designer clothing. She was awesome and never received credit or even decent pay. (btw, I am a member of the StitchClub)
Thanks for your kind words Linda. I hope you are enjoying Stitch Club. I’ll be teaching there in a couple of weeks time.
