Well, remember, these people are passing around hand-written copies. There’s only two or three pieces that are multiple lines. I think they must have expected people to embroider on their own.

They did, and I think the evolved product turned out better than the root from which it began.

There’s a set of music manuscripts from that period and this is one of the larger ones. I’m planning to do Farewell to Lochabor next, which is more intricate. But almost all are simple melodies.

I don't know that one, but I am partial to "the girl I left behind me." :)

I should think you would be. She undoubtedly still misses you!
