Also sad that your aunt only returned once. My mother-in-law came to Australia as a war bride, but has returned many times. She's now in her late 80s, and since my father-in-law died in 1992, she has gone every year to visit her mother and siblings.Jofeathhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10290597697140624780noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-427560122717203300.post-86648132234983335792013-11-14T18:04:45.368+00:002013-11-14T18:04:45.368+00:00Your mom and aunt were certainly accomplished seam...Your mom and aunt were certainly accomplished seamstresses.

Your Mom & aunt are to be commended for sewing their own clothing on a treadle machine! And quite fashionable duds they were, too. Loved their smartly cocked hats. On your father, too, in the next photo. Confident adventurous people will do that. :) La Nightingailhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04769079547153094005noreply@blogger.com
