Yes, very "on trend" at the moment too. (my daughter loves your headboard by the way!) .... she also loves the sadly now long gone carpet posted earlier in the thread.  :'(  ;)

I'm hoping scruffydave has managed to come to some arrangement with Dianne regarding printing some new designs.  :)

I imagine that Peter would be pleased to know that there is a whole new generation who appreciate his work.

Hi
It’s lovely to hear such praise for my dads designs. Sadly Dad died 6 months ago and we miss him so much.  His portfolio has some beautiful designs but I don’t see any being published.

I'm so so sorry to hear that sad news Dianne. Thank you for letting us know.

It is a shame to hear that you don't think that your Dad's other designs will ever be published. There are so many lovers of his work worldwide, especially within younger generations.

I am also sorry to hear of your loss, Dianne.
Never trust anything you find online (especially submitted trees and transcriptions on Ancestry, MyHeritage, FindMyPast and other commercial web sites) unless it's an image of an original document - and even then be wary because errors can and do occur.
