One of my 'crafting ladies' who has been coming to my house monthly since 2008 sadly and unexpectedly died last Wednesday. It was such a shock and I still can't quite believe it. We had our last session on Dec 8th to finish off some Christmas cards and we had arranged another session for last Sunday. I spent the day in a bit of a haze.
Her favourite craft medium was card stitching. I think this is because she was a Tailoress before she joined the WAF at the outbreak of war and subsequently met her husband - a Spitfire pilot.
So I have made a very simple stitch card as my sympathy card to the family. I know she would have approved.
Here are some of her cards

Such sad news Carol. Her cards were really well done and I'm sure she had a wonderful time at your craft sessions. Hugs.
ReplyDeleteSad news indeed Carol. Always a shock for everyone left behind but so nice for the person concerned not to be in any pain. Her cards were beautiful.
