Neighbor asked me to make a bib for a friend's granddaughter. The surname is Koning (= Dutch for king) so I added a crown.

I made one for her brother 4 years ago, but I could not find the design I made at the time. So I looked for the picture and digitised a new one.

Well done Martine, did you use a punch down effect for the crown? It looks fabulous and I remember your older one too. Love Chris

I neither used a dense underlay or a piece of washaway stabiliser to tame the towel - things I usually do -, but I did iron it before stitching. I know that works well on this brand of towel.

I often buy the guesttowels by the dozen, mostly white, some pink or blue ones. I use a CD as a template and make a few blanks to have handy for a quick gift/request.

I remember the other one you made and though I know it was more trouble to digitize again, you did just as good with this one. Looks great!

You're a fine digitizer and this is so nice. I wished I knew my traditional Norwegian language from Father's side and my traditional German language from my Mother's side. Little do we know as a child. I follow you just with this illness I am not on here a great deal anymore. Do love your knitting also.

German was not my favourite languange when at school, but I am glad you could not skip it at the time. My daughter has been living in Norway for 15 years now and I visit her twice a year. I understand a lot, but can talk only the most basic short sentences. And every time I go to Norway I promise myself to study more ...
Sorry you are ill, wish you well!
