Lol Jim! I think it caused a world shortage of lace that season  ;D ;D ;D

It is a beautiful picture and the restores and colouring are brilliant!  I can't do the fancy frames or porcelain effect yet, I will leave that up to you guys while I practice on the quiet  ;)

O.K. All,

You asked for it, I am just about to post a few more photos. I can't have you all sitting there twiddling your thumbs.

As a matter of interest, Emily was married a month and a day short of her 17th brithday. She was so beautiful and she also had an interesting life. I'll let you all know if and when I get her story published.

Thanks again for all your wonderful work.
Regards,
Tissy aka Alfred aka Di XXX ::) ;D :D ;) :D

Hi Poll,

You have just blown me away with this version. All the work by everyone has been just magnificent.

I was about to mark this as completed but if you would like, I will leave it on for a while longer. I have always loved the photo myself, the original hangs on my bedroom wall. However now I think there will be versions of it all around the house. You are all so gifted and I thank everyone.

Regards,
Tissy
