Gifties to Normandy

Hello friends!
Do you remember this?

(Thread: Holly Berry GAST)

and this :

(Anchor fibers)

They were gifts for two Norman friends...
A small banner for Anne-Marie,
who's been very sweet to Robin and me

Text says "Welcome to my house on the hill"
(it is the subtitle to Anne-Marie's blog)

A ruchéd pinkeep for my dearest friend Sylvie




~*~
I still have two exams to grade... Then all the paperwork (calculating final grades etc.). And I haven't baked our King's cake yet! All this with a splitting headache

Hoping your Sunday is good and restful!

You poor girl with a bad headache, that's everyone's problem here also, with this crazy weather we have been having.
