These posts of seamstresses in fine art are priceless for tying history to the present, constructing a legacy of diligence.

Again a young girl working outdoors, without a chair … are they not allowed to work in comfort around the fire in some countries? đŸ˜‰
I love the depth of the reds in her clothing. Her gaze is so intense I wonder if she discovered a dropped stitch back a few rows. You can almost see the furrow between her eyebrows.

Rosemary, I love your sense of humour. I wish you lived next door. We could have some very interesting conversations, with lots of laughs.
