Closest book is the one I've been reading for a week, Here Be Dragons, by Sharon Kay Penman
oh dear, not a quote I would have chosen, but oh well... conversation between John, King of England, and 14 yr old Isabelle of Angouleme, whom he marries:
"They are green, no? I've never owned much jewelry. I do have a betrothal ring from Hugh. But I supposed I must give it back now, must I not?"
I'm going to tag Brigitte, Birgitte, Melissa, Carrie, and LauraLo (in honor of her 1st place win in the Timmel SWAP
And did you notice, if you sew and were following the Timmel SWAP - not a single one of the five top place winners were from the USA? Interesting.

How fun and ... uhm, revealing... Looking around me, all I see are sewing related books. Think I should get a life?
When I read the first instruction, I immediately turned to the book shelf next to the computer desk. Oh well, I haven't been tagged yet. lol
LauraLo's SWAP was awesome. I wasn't following the SWAP, but I'm glad she won!
I hope these more frequent posts mean you are on the mend!
I can hardly wait to see what Queen Isabella says for this meme.
Not one from the USA? Not that I was following it, but country pride.
I did notice that none of the "winners" weren from the USA (they were all winners to me). Lets see, nearest book: "The Nanny Diaries" by Emma LcLauglin * Nicola Kraus.
Marji, this is very interesting proposal. share our passion for sewing and also for books. best wishes. Paco
