Are these ornaments supposed to be FSL? Mine fell apart when I got it wet.
No, these are not fsl...they are designed to be stitched onto felt or any type fabric you wish.......
Thanks for the Lovely Netherlands and we also have provinces and one is Noord Holland and the other is Zuid Holland. This is where the most of the tulips com from and the cheese and too answer the question below we speek Dutch and ofcourse we also have slang. Still this is a great job what you are doing and I love it, Yvonne
Thank You Vicki. I thought that the Netherlands was the country and Dutch the language.
Thank You Vicki. I thought that the Netherlands was the country and Dutch the language.
Please don't say "sorry". Each of these ornaments is a great GIFT of your time and talents. We are MOST appreciative! THANK YOU.
Wow Vicki, Very impressive! My hat is off to you for sure! Great job on my Home Country. Thank you for sharing your incredible talent! Heel goed gedaan!
Vicki, just so you know, 'Holland' Is the same country as the Netherlands. The way I like to explain to folks is, that the name "Holland" is the Dutch word for "Netherlands", aka "Nederlanden". It simply means that the whole country is Below Sea-level. Hence, Hol-land or, Nether-lands/Neder-land. Hope this helps understanding it a little easier? I'm asked this question almost on a daily basis. So Vicki, good news is, that you don't have to do it again, You've done it already! Yeah!!! and Thank you again for all your hard work.. Trudy
You two have made my day!!!! See what us foreigners know...LOL? And here I had planned tulips for Holland..what a hoot!!
What do you mean with: this includes Holland? You aren't thinking of doing two provinces (Noordholland and Zuiholland) separately, do you?
I don't know, Martine.....am getting confused.....someone asked for Holland and I noticed that Holland looks attached to the Netherlands...is that correct? I assumed this person wants Holland separate..........
No, Holland is used by foreigners for the whole country, while it's only the 2 provinces next to the coast that bare that name. The capital, Amsterdam, the seat of government, the Hague, and the main port, Rotterdam, are in that area. But officially it is Kingdom of the Netherlands and people in other parts of the country don't like the term Holland - like calling a Scot English. And to confuse matters further, the eastern and southern parts of the Netherlands where there are more wooded areas is above sealevel, the none wooded west called Holland is below sealevel (and thus deserves the term 'Netherland' (or Low country) Hehehe!
But you don't have to do another one, that's for sure.
Vicki, No worries. You are doing an amazing job, and in such a short time period. I appreciate all that you have done. And a great big Thanks! Treat yourself after you cook, wash dishes and laundry of course. LOL
Hi Vicki, I know it is hard to do each one and get them correct. I would be happy to do the research for you and get it right. You just really can't do the entire world. We all appreciate your work. But, truly, you have your own work to do, and maybe even some things you just enjoy doing for pleasure :-) and stress relief. Are you beginning to miss fur? Hugs, Jan
Thanks Vicki.I sure appreciate all the hard work and time that you are giving for free.Keep up the good work, but don't knock yourself out.Remember time for Vicki too.
I think you are doing a fantastic job. I know these must take you quite a while. We all thank you very much. Iva
