Happy Birthday Your Majesty!
What an extraordinary life to live, not sure I could manage it, even with it's privileges. The Queen's generation lived through and survived such a tumultuous period in history, I wonder if they really are the last great generation.
One of our customers recently told me a great story about their mother, who on hearing about the imminent introduction of rationing during the war, went to her local fancy goods purveyor and placed a large lay by. This meant that during the war she could keep paying off her lay by, which kept her stocked with embroidery supplies throughout those dark years. I love to think of it, even a war couldn't stop a woman from her stitching!
