I am more than happy for you to use my idea about treasures for your own family. I am going to take photos too as well as a resume or family story about specific items. I was fortunate to grow up in a close and living family with grandparents on my dads side only but we grew up with these much loved damily members and anecdotal stories were passed on about family members by word of mouth. My two nephews only grew up with my mum and dad and did not know many of the people referred to. However I am also sorting out the family history so as to leave as a record behind and the family stories which I think give a link and continuity. Some of the treasures they may well not want but that will be for them to decide. I hope they will and if I can bring it alive for them and stop any fighting then I will. If you have a photo of the item you have positive proof that they existed and you can leave a specific gift schedule with any Will. Photo ID helps identify things and stops matters dragging on. It can also be a boon if for any reason you need to do an insurance claim. So I am more than happy for you to use the idea for yourself and your family. Thanks for popping by and I will pop up a photo of the cushion once it is completed. Take care.

Its a kit that I like and have had it hanging around for a while now. Its easy to pick up and put down and is very forgiving. Trouble with me is that I have lots of ideas and then I forget what I am going to do. It must be my age. I like doing needlepoint anyway but this is the first cross stitch needlepoint I have done. I have lots of long stitch pictures of the Lake District that were bought around the same time as the rocking chair. About half are done but I still have a few more to go and then to get them framed. I also thought that if I put the next project on the blog it would keep me to a timeline for doing it and get things out the way quickly as I am so easily distracted and get enthused with another project which I am desperately trying not to do. Am trying to be more disciplined. Some hope there But I am trying.

I love the sound of your rocking chair and would have done the same sort of thing - had an extra little holiday just to go and get it!Bovey Bellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13117332471600275100noreply@blogger.com
