I love, love, love these daffodils she made for me. Made even more special with the miniscule weed growing up on the side of the of the mossy flower pot. It is destine to live next to the front step of my house.
Who would think someone could be so thrilled with a bouquet of weeds! They will be kept safe until the day their stems are clipped and planted. To understand their size, look at the one on the flower pot above!
When Linda posted the photo of Beverly Miles beautiful tatted doily and said she was sending it to someone, I never dared to dream it would be to me. I couldn't believe my eyes when I saw it. A photo cannot begin to tell you how fine and delicate it is. It reminds me of a snow flake. The thread used to make it is much finer than sewing thread. BEAUTIFUL!!!!
I have admired Margaret Crosswell's beautiful work for a very long time on Linda's blog. I am so thrilled with this beautiful pitcher. It is just gorgeous!!! It will have a special place in my house.
Thank you so very much Linda....I am so thrilled!!!!!!!! You are so very generous and a valued dear friend.

What wonderful presents and so exquisitely made too.
ReplyDeleteI've made the daisy's myself and know how difficult and time consuming they are. The fact that Linda has been these perfectly, shows an immense amount of skill and patience and very good eyesight! :o))

It will look lovely with your collection of miniatures that you are gathering!! Hurry with that new house!!! I can't wait to see what you design!
