I keep my blog as a personal record of what I'm up to, which might be seen as working towards "An elegant sufficiency, content, retirement, rural quiet, friendship, books, ease and alternate labour, useful life"

I'm certainly not there yet.  There is quite some way to go!

Meet Mrs P

 

(completely unrelated to going on holiday!)

 

My apologies for a flurry of posts today. I’ve been wanting to introduce you to Mrs P for a while, but waited until my post on another blog was up and ready to read.  I feel sure my crafty friends will be as fascinated as I was by the hanging which was distracting me from my meeting the other day, so thought I’d share the link to her story.

Nelly May was a remarkable woman with a wealth of craft skills, acquired mostly through her WI membership.  What prompted this post was the next piece of the story, which arrived in this morning’s mail and which will appear as the next installment in my Craft Blog on the WI website soon.

My Dear Mrs. P,

"Hallelujah".
Mrs. P I am so glad you are here with links because I could never quite figure out what it was that Gill does. From her being all over the globe to BBC tv or was that radio to the inspections recently by ? hmmm forget the contingent [ when Gill showed us her slippers and they had a fire alarm ] but it was about education, and you Mrs. P taught me today about the Women's Institute formed in 1915.

Thank you Mrs. P.

cordially yours,
Ava
