Description
Elna Brodie Niccolls grew up in Nesbitt, Manitoba, then on the North Hill above Brandon, and then in Brandon. She loved to draw. She is my grandmother. She is 92. I have pieced together the fragments of this paper, colorized it, and prepared it for print. Elna referred to her grandchildren as little lambs. Elna used her skills like this to create designs she would then embroider to make pillowcases, cushions, and so on. Elna was also a craft convenor in her church. She would dream up ideas of what women could make, make them as models, and then have groups of women make these little items (brooches, decorations, etc.) and then the community would host sales and use the money for church projects. She passed on a couple to me. Some of these were also embroidered pins - she gave me one to keep.
