June's Fully Finished Objects

Rachel, Ten Hour Stitcher, is the super host of Fully Finished Objects which is a great opportunity to show and tell about our crafty items that are completely finished.

I have only finished my Santas this month. It's been a busy few weeks since we returned from our cruise.

As you know my Mum has been unwell for the last couple of years, for the last three months she has been in bed being nursed at home. Sadly she passed away on Saturday, she was amazed to have reached her 85th birthday on the last day of May.

We are currently on our way to France for a four week holiday, part of which our two children and their other halves will join us. With Mum passing on Saturday we could say goodbye, I was quite worried it may have been while we were away, I had the same worry when we went on our cruise in April. My stepdad will stay at their bungalow so there is no house to clear and he will do all the legal requirements so there is no point in us cancelling the holiday, I think to be honest we all need the break. 

Sad times but Mum is now at peace. 




I did finish this card last month and have shared it in Gifted Gorgeousness but not FFO. They had a lovely wedding, no rain which at the moment is a very rare day here.

I'm very sorry to read about your mother, Clare. It's so hard to say goodbye--even when they are fading. 85 is a good age--lots of memories for you, I'm sure. I think getting away to France will be so helpful for rest and reflection. Your finished pieces are lovely and the wedding card is so sweet. Take care and travel safely. ♥
