Rafael's Mum of Adventures in Quilting and Sailing!

And, did I mention it is gorgeous? Check out the photos on her blog. To die for!

Thank you so much Jessica! How can I be so lucky as no one? I thought no one never got picked!! I love the pattern, the book and the fabric. Thank you for this lovely prize!
ReplyDeleteI am just starting to read pride and prejudice. Did not get to that bit yet.. interesting!! Did they ever get to Ramsgate? That would be fun to read!
I went back into my post and included a link to Darcy's letter, the main characters never go to Ramsgate, but it is mentioned also in Mansfield Park . . . apparently Austen had visited there because her brother was stationed there (in the Navy). Such a lovely area! Excited that these patterns are headed there!
ReplyDeleteIt is certainly a lovely area with a rich history! Although I wasn't aware of the Austen connection! How interesting!
