For many years, in fact since I was 10 years old I have had a penfriend in the USAGeorganna has been to visit me in Australia five times and I have been to visit her twice
Meeting her in real life was like meeting a long lost sister
She came to Lyndas wedding .but didnt make it to Aines
She came about two years ago to see Lorraine and say her goodbyes
This week in the mail I received These beautiful quilted pictures that she made
The Breast cancer one is a lovely tribute to my darling girl and a great comfort to me
She doesnt have a blog or email
Shame
How nice it would be to "talk" to her more often
How beautiful Illene, the timber frames are really nice too. Jill x
ReplyDeleteGood Morning Illene, a beautiful thought from Georganna...Hugs Lyn
ReplyDeleteThese quilted pictures are just beautiful and very, very special. I think the fact that you have had your penfriend since you were 10 is also AMAZING. That would be so wonderful to have been communicating with her all this time, and getting to meet each other...WOW. True kindred spirits.
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely story Illene and a beautiful gesture and gifts to treasure. True friendship. :-D
