    I have just delivered posy arrangements one of my clients asked to make for her so she can take them to her sons grave tomorrow had he lived he would have been 20 tomorrow.

    She was thrilled with what I produced and the colours I choose.

    I was so happy when she said this.

    Also getting pleasure of makeing to one her clients as she has card shop inour village.

    Oh Scotkat you are a woman of many talents and here I thought you could only crochet! :confused:

    Surely your client wasn't the only one that was thrilled with the posy and knowing her tragic loss of which is an incredibly sad story I'm sure she got great comfort from your flowers.

    I agree with EM show us your wares good lady, you know I like to see what you can do! :D
    Hel.xxx.

    They are lovely posies, Scotkat, especially the top one. The wedding corsage is lovely and the rose is a beautiful colour.
