    Did he tell you the story about this one? And I think I'd leave it just as it is. There must have been a reason someone framed it.

    It is beautiful! You should be so proud of it! Anyone would be proud to hang that in their sewing room!!!!
    You are so sweet & deserving of his kindness. One kindness leads to another and another and another......pass the kindness on & on

    He didn't tell me anything about it, other than it was hand sewn.
