With 4 grown up daughters I also make wedding dresses. My husband and I now have a smallholding in Wales which occupies rather alot of my time.

Hi Pam, it is always a pleasure to meet another Japanese embroiderer. I've made a couple of wedding dresses in the past and know how much work and how much stress is involved. Hope you all have a lovely time at the wedding and look forward to getting to know you better when you have more free time.
Hello Pam, welcome to Stitchin Fingers. I see that you list Japanese Embroidery in your interests. I am also learning JE as well as Japanese Bead Embroidery. I attend classes in Bournemouth.
