mysteriously mixed in with my pocket
change of quarters and dimes...
was a British pound
bearing the symbol of a leek in a coronet
one of the symbols of Wales
edge inscription: PLEIDIOL WYF I'M GWLAD
"True am I to my country"
makes you think twice before
chopping some royal leeks up for soup...

And true are you to your craft! Your napkins are lovely. Now, where did you acquire that coin???

Would love it if coins magically appeared in my pocket! With or without the leeks... Happy Monday!

So pretty, both the coin and your handiwork. Curious for you to have found it :)
Pretty coin and beautiful embroidery!
I adore your napkins!! They are so lovely... I've got a Singer Futura that embordiers, but for the life of me I can't figure it out, but I haven't tried very hard. You are very talended! The coin is very unusual!
The coin is neat looking, but the embroidery is divine!
I'm always amazed what a strange language Welsh is!! Totally forgot about the leeks, which I love by the way. And of course such beautiful work as always!!
such a cute post and gorgeous images as always!
Love the crown detail.
Hope you had a great weekend.

never picked up any welsh when i lived there, although all of the signs and everything else is written in welsh and english.
That grey is so stunning, I love the leek on the pound. I'm enjoying a tour of your work....make really wonderful creations!
