Scope and content
Thanks Barbara for giving her and Tilly 'such as happy day last Sunday'. Was 'absolutely captivated' by both children. Thought Nick 'charming'. The visit did Tilly 'a world of good'. Mrs Bartle would be pleased to make up Barbara's tapestry into a cushion cover. Asks whether Barbara would prefer piping or braiding, and what sort of material she would like for the backing. The plant survived the journey home and looks 'splendid' on a window sill. Hopes that FH will not be away long, as she doesn't like to think of Barbara on her own in the winter months.
