Title: Could you colour my great aunt please?
Post by: oldtimer on Friday 16 November 07 17:18 GMT (UK)
Hi friends

I know that this photo of my great aunt Sarah isn't scanned to a very high resolution, but wondered if you would have a go at colouring it please.

Many thanks
Judy  ;)

Hello Irene!!

That is so lovely! I love the colours you have chosen. You have really brought her to "life"! The oval frame is really pretty too.

Many thanks! Judy  ;)

Hi Carol!
wow! Another fabulous restoration! Thank you ever so much. Lovely colours, and I really like the border :D :D

As you say, I have had so many gorgeous replies , but each one is different, and each restorer brings something different in his or her interpretation.

Thank you again, all you wonderful restorers for your hard work!!
