HAPPY BIRTHDAY to my dear friend and fellow cutie olymphe (Claire). BONNE FETE mon amie, On Friday Claire and 7 others joined me for my first ever embroidery gathering. We were celebrating her birthday (75th) and at the same time we had a workshop on Embird and swapped embroidery projects and ideas. It was so much fun. Claire is our cutwork, cross stitch specialist and here is a picture of the beautiful doily she gave me as a thank you gift. I love, love, love it and it now sits on my dining room table. She does such wonderful work. So join me in wishing her the best birthday ever,
