I have recently found this beautiful embroidered cloth in the home of a wonderful lady. It reminded me immediately of my mother who was born on 16 July 1948❤️ The gentle, handwoven cloth, the finely embroidered little roses and tulips, the still vibrant colours of the threads after 75 years they brought back memories of the warm and selfless nature of my dear mom.

Wishing you all love, joy, peace and a very merry Christmas❤️ “Let us have love and more love, a love that melts all opposition, a love that conquers all foes, a love that sweeps away all barriers, a love that aboundeth in charity, large-heartedness, tolerance, and noblestriving, a love that triumphs over all obstacles, a boundless, resistless, sweeping love. Ah me! Each one must be a sign of love, a sea of love, a centre of love, a sun of love, a star of love, a haven of love, a pearl of love, a palace of love, a mountain of love, a world of love, a universe of love.
