My First Fifty Years - a wall hanging by Mrs P

Mrs P, a WI member turned 50 years of learning and life into this fascinating embroidered wall hanging.  Titled my first fifty years, it's an inspiring piece of work, we'd love to see it close up, just look at the detail in the text and those beautiful miniatures illustrating all the crafts she learned during her time with the WI.

Head over to the original post on Gills Blog at the official online home of the WI, to read more clearly all the wonderful activities that Mrs P recorded on this wall hanging.  Also take a look at this follow up post with more interesting information about the life of this talented crafty lady.

It's great that so many people are now as enthusiastic about craft as Mrs P obviously was.  This beautiful wall hanging will be really appreciated for generations to come.
