Sat mending Sara's gloves......

           .....the ones she threw away the last time she was here for Mother's Day. 

                 

          .....I am using darning wool from mum's old sewing basket......

       I have got several cards, they come in different colours to match your mending and they are all "Made in Great Britain"  If you come across any on your travels I could do with some "colour 436" or "Black" as we would say today.

       .....Oh, and don't pay anymore than mum did - 3 1/2d- that's less than 2p in today's money!

       There are so many ancient bits and pieces stashed in there, I love pulling them out and poring over them all then stuffing them all back for another few years.....
