Spring Cleaning

After spring cleaning from Good Friday to Easter Sunday, I was so happy to sit and draw this
little picture on to a scrap of linen, and embroider it for my tag! My husband does not like to
spoil the garden with an old fashioned washing line, which I would love. So I have to make do
with one of those modern whirlygig things, and how I miss seeing the linen flapping on a long
line! So in my imagination I can draw and embroider one just for this tag. Such a lot of fun.
I so appreciate the comments left for me, and wonder at all the ever evolving creative tags
posted by you, bloggy friends. Many thanks, very best wishes, Valerie R.

  3. Lovely tag. Washing does look much better on a real line. They have been removed from our community garden for being *Obsolete*. That must have been a man! Valerie
