May 1st is Labour Day in Belgium. On this day they also give lily of the valley, as a lucky charm to the ones they love. Nadine has asked us to post pictures of any lily of the valley fabric we might have. Just happens I do have one. Funny thing is it's not the one I went looking for. The other was a bit thin (from Hancocks and not some of their better stuff) and I think it must have been in the stuff I gave away last year.
So Nadine, this is for you. Literally. Send me your address and I'll send this FQ to you. Happy Labour Day!

Nancy, dear, how sweet of you ! I'll make a nice May table topper with it...
BUT... please e-mail me your address, as well : I'll send a small surprise to you, too...
Big, big ((hugs)) & smiles !

My Nana always had this flower around the edge of her house. It is one of the very 1st flowers I knew the name of because it is also May's birth flower, which is when my birthday is.
Cheers!

Nancy (& Nadine) they also do this in Northern France - when we lived there we could not get over the traffic jams around the florists shops on the evening of the 30th April as everyone was calling in to collect their lily of the valley for the next day - thanks to you both for reminding me, that was one of the things I'd forgotten about our time there
What a pretty fabric! I bet Nadine loved it.
