me mudder...

"who sit me on the ice cold pot and me me pee whether I could or not - me mudder"  Do you remember these little me mudder ditties - I can only recall this particular one - we used to rattle them off when I was a kid, a very long time ago.   Anyway, we've been at the cabin where it's still quite cool and have been using the outhouse temporarily - every time I sat on the cold seat in the early morning this little ditty would come to mind and with it came fond memories of my and friends and our activities.  ^^

I made this for a friend for Mother's Day.  She lost her only child a few years ago and just recently lost her husband - I wanted to be sure she received something for Mother's Day.  Her favourite colour is blue and I'm hoping she likes lavender since that's what I filled the sachet with.  ^^  I backed it with a piece of toile in the same colours  - this is a design by Happiness is Cross Stitching - the wee rose will be the package tie-on instead of a bow - she's a classy lady so a parasol seemed appropriate.
