OK here goes. going to try and post. hope photoes will come out.

Following is a wall hanging which is all hand sewn and hand embroidered. The saying is something I have carried around in my head since I first read it when I was 17 years old. (a couple of decades ago!!)

That has to be one of the most beautiful things I have seen. With the exception of my 2 daughters and 7 grand daughters, of course.

I actually have also always loved this quote - but now it will always be remebered with the beautiful handwork around it.

Oh my goodness. Your quilt is absolutely stunning.

Hi just found my first post of my wall hanging... thank you all for the lovely comments you have posted. So glad that so many of you have read that saying and liked it.

I did some research on Henry whilst I was sewing the wall hanging, and he was quite a man. He stood for what he believed in. Hell then I really knew why I loved his saying. I am also that stubborn......

I cannot remember everything I found out about him now, but I have typed out what I felt was needed and I placed it into the file where I write about my quilts.

I think if I was asked who I would like to meet, I think he would be the person I would like to meet.

Will try and post more photoes soon. ciao

This is a master piece creation. Wow and wow again. It is stunning.
Cannot believe you did all the words by hand. Oh my gosh. Excellent.
I hope it is in the lounge to be enjoyed by all.
