Hi Margaret
Your mermaid in her grotto is a feast for the eyes...give yourself one big slap on the back! Your blog is inspiring and very informative. I too was a librarian in a previous incarnation...I wish I could apply the Dewey System to my stash tho....
Kind Regards.

Thanks for the book recommendations, Margaret and the advice. I am very tempted to give it a try. My to do is very long and the moment, so many things to try, so little time :(

ps. the checked lilies look like a UK wild flower called fritillaries.

Well then Margaret, I am doubly impressed if slightly disappointed, I hoped I could buy a book that would guide me to do something similar. Wonderful stitching, well done.

Hi Margaret, I really like your avatar. I'm assuming that it is you own work, very impressive. May I ask if instructions for these flowers can be found in a book or a kit?

Dear Margaret, Thank you SO much for the information about connecting with education possibilities. I am sorry that I did not get into embroidery when I was living in Richmond for the last 10 years! I am now in Va Beach.
Again, I really do appreciate your thorough response.
All the Best and Thanks,
Keith Nesbitt

Hi Margaret, I was looking up folks who might be in Virginia. I am in Virginia Beach. I was wondering if anyone out there knew of embroidery classes in the Tidewater area.
Cheers,
Keith Nesbitt, Virginia Beach, VA

Hi Margaret,
I haven't finished doing my profile page yet, but I searched for "historical" amongst the Introductions, and found you! And found that you liked Stumpwork too.

My blog is http://elmsleyrose.blogspot.com/

I've sent a friend request to you, hoping that is ok. I see that we already have several friends in common - some of which I recognise their icons because they've used images of their work, but haven't gotten to friending yet! This is all so new, and woomph! All this information, and familiar faces from everywhere!

best,
Megan
