Un Regalo Per Priscilla... A Gift For Priscilla...

Many ,  many years ago,  before Priscilla was even born,  I started this needlework piece.  I loved the simple design and the fact that it was not a typical needlework pattern.  I bought it in the seventies... I started working on it,  then put it away,  and forgot about it.  Years later I came across it,  but still didn't continue working on it.  When I came across it recently,  I decided it needed to be finished.  I still love the design,  and so does Priscilla.  I was surprised and happy  when she told me that she would like to have it.  After all these years,  I would  need to put and end to this project,  and so I did.  
I'm happy with the way it turned out... although  not perfect,  I love it...

    This is so lovely. She looks so carefree, and I love the yellow flowers. It is something Priscilla can keep forever. Such a treasure for her because it's made special by you.
