vintage

My dear mum, born 1904 and lived to 90.
A larger version of this photo, when in her teens, watches over me in my workroom.
The background is a scrap of fabric from an old skirt of mine - nearly vintage - lace from a motif given to me by a friend a while ago, beads added, and a few strands of textured yarn. Connie.
