I asked Barbara for a short phrase or quotation for me to embroider on the piece. She gave me a lovely line from Emily Dickinson.
"Where thou art, that is home." How beautiful....Barbara is engaged to be married, so I wonder whose portrait might go in this locket?
I can guess....I do know that whomever goes through Barbara's door will find grace, beauty, and wit.
She is making a Madonna piece for me in exchange for her home portrait. I'll show it to you when I receive it....Blessings on your house, Barbara!
