Well, by hand crocheting those huge Fleur de Lys Curtains; I learned anew about PERSEVERANCE.
Feeling so very happy to have this 2nd Fleur de Lys curtain up and hanging; after only some 50 hours of crocheting!
On March 14, Speed Crochet... My final 1.5 Fleur de Lys.
After all, it was only HALF the size of the first one I did crochet in about 100 hours.
The crocheted table topper with roses was a gift from my dear friend Ellie.
An elderly lady Mia Keizers, in her 70s, did crochet that one.
The woolen rug also has the Fleur de Lys pattern.
Both of us are very pleased with the new curtains.
Husband Pieter even called it our home's prettiest room. Also with the view we have from here.
Our proud collection of Delfware houses, earned on KLM Royal Dutch Airlines.
If we only had the time to sit here, relax and read...
Having done this task, I need to catch up on so many other things!
And we are getting slower as we age.
Cannot complain though.
Thanks for your visit!
