Ladies of the Club ~ c. 1896 *Swirlydoos*

My maternal great grandmother is on the far left..such a tiny little thing! Mary Elizabeth Floyd Duckworth was born in 1870 in Eccles, Lancashire, England, so she was about 26 here...I find it interesting that my maternal side of the family lived in that area for centuries and still does...all except my Mum, who immigrated to the USA at 23. Such a brave girl to come here alone because she couldn't stand the idea of living down the same lane from the entire family and being under their thumb. Anyway..I have no idea what this picture is about, but it always reminds me of the ladies of the club. I wish I knew who the others were, as they might be family too! The second from the right does look a bit like Mary Elizabeth.

I feel certain a lot of this is from Swirlydoos kits, but can't recall which one! Feel free to fill me in if you know!

Dusty Attic frame is colored with rub'n'buff to age it...same with the resin bird. Her initials are done in the lower left in some pearl letters I wish I had more of. Used that WRM Lucky 8 cutter for the circle mat and Martha Stewart around the page for the first mat.
