We have a new
KING
This morning his mother Queen Beatrix abdicated
so now her eldest son Willem Alexander
had his first day as King
*
While watching tv
I did my last stitches to close the seam on my Boro jacket
(this was yesterday, when there were still some pinns in the sleeve)
Tomorrow I'll will wear it !
Oh Els! It is wonderful! You have worked quickly (on your slow cloth!!) much faster than me, and I am doing 'rough' stitching. How fabulous.
BeantwoordenVerwijderenWe watched on the news today your new King, and how every one was celebrating. I don't think our Queen will abdicate, she considers she made a vow when she was crowned, which she cannot abdicate from. (We suspect she may not have complete confidence in Charles as King. Many monarchists wish the line could pass straight to William, poor lad, I would not wish that on him at his age.) So there you have it - two nations, two very different Royal Families.
So, what next for you in the textile line, Els? I am sure you will have something in mind! Oh, and Happy May Day! Lx
Wow, what a fabulous jacket! Congrats on having a new King!
BeantwoordenVerwijderenYOU ROCK!!!!!!
BeantwoordenVerwijderenWhat an inspiring & dramatic piece of stitchery you have created. I hope you will post about the reactions you receive while wearing it. Great work!
As for new *kingdoms,* I hope he will be a good sovereign to all of you.
And pssssst .... I have a secret desire that the Queen of England should do the same ... don't tell ;>]]
Wonderful work, Els. What satisfaction, wearing your art! I hope it is a good thing to have a new King. Hurray for your jacket! -sus
