She made all my clothes, and inspired me with the love of sewing.<br />She tragically died young after my tenth birthday, in a car accident. The beautiful memories of her, has given me strength to carry on all these years.Lorraine Lahavhttp://www.facebook.com/lorraine.lahavnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4366076016909992831.post-52821198736730843662013-01-23T10:02:25.803+00:002013-01-23T10:02:25.803+00:00I've been given a Needlework book from this er...I've been given a Needlework book from this era with a pattern for a Scottie. I have 1/2 metre of some thrifted wool plaid for making him in. Will probably be making an appearance on my blog soon! Have also seen round and about on my travels some great Scottie doorstops and such like. Seems like they are enjoying new found popularity.Margueritedesignshttp://margueritedesigns.blogspot.co.uk/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4366076016909992831.post-92127646759252455432013-01-23T05:03:39.419+00:002013-01-23T05:03:39.419+00:00I absolutely adore scottie dogs.
