Karen King finished this lovely travel hussif, a class by Trish Hill. Just beautiful

A lovely story from Carol Roband who was out at our diaplay at the Old Omokoroa Library doing Hostess Duty.
She met Tonia, a 94 year old from Omokoroa, who embroidered this tablecloth in 1986 and it has never been used, she is too scared to wash it.
Tonia has been stitching since she was a young girl and is a beautiful stitcher.
