Rachel, this lady is actually a Forrest!  Mary Douglas Forrest born Glasgow 1920.
Now wouldn't it be weird if she turned out to be one of your rellies.


 :o :o Ooooooo  :D maybe that's why I was drawn to her pic   :o :o
Sadly, I've been stuck for 2 years with mine and there's no sign of 'movement' ...
Maybe if I colour Mary nicely,  some of mine will appear ??? :-\ ;D

Have only just realised ... my Avatar pic was taken in the early 1940s and her dress has a similar neckline to Mary's ...
will have to ask if she can remember what colour it was.

These are all great everyone.
Appreciating the effort.
Still not sure about the colour of the top.  They all look quite appropriate but I don't know.
Thanks
