Tulips Row-On-Row. Taken in May of 2002
Every spring Ottawa has a Tulip Festival. The tulips are a gift from Holland we receive each year. During World War 2 Canada sheltered Queen Juliana of the Netherlands. While in Ottawa she gave birth to her third daughter, Margret, in Ottawa. They designated land at the hospital as Dutch so she could be born in Holland. The tulips are a sight to see!
I've been working away on Judy's little giftie tonight. Its stitching up much quicker than I thought it would and is turning out quite nicely. Now I just hope once the stitching is finished that the finishing will look just as good!
