I've seen some horrendous work, much of it for sale, and much boasting attached to it too, unfortunately, stuff that makes me suck my teeth and do the cat's bum moue as my friend would say! This most certainly does not come into that category.LollyWilloweshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05616800459266149659noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6506152012995048509.post-55099585810495038452013-02-02T12:35:03.586+00:002013-02-02T12:35:03.586+00:00It's great to have an example of an original R...It's great to have an example of an original RAF embroidery but I agree that yours could happily sit next to it - there's barely a pin between them (pardon the pun!) to these eyes.

Its amazingly fine work for anyone but considering he worked in a timber mill its just astonishing. I enjoy embroidery too but couldn't come anywhere near the quality. I think you should be very proud of your work, consider it your 'salute' to the dishy man in the silver frame. jennywrenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11867498584073110293noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6506152012995048509.post-19605864631702830572013-02-02T11:50:17.827+00:002013-02-02T11:50:17.827+00:00How smashing that embroidery is, and yours too!

And how much fun to have an original as well. That's so neat!<br /><br />I can confirm even over here that would be kind of "man's tape" too, we call it electrical tape. Even my own dad used it once on the back of a little framed drawing of mine when I was a kid. :)Tashahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11368418516615371972noreply@blogger.com
