I very nearly sneaked back onto Mummy's 'My True Colours' blog today, as I have something rather special to share.
My fine felting design may be modelled, on the one & only WFT Jackson, but my conception is in memory of Mummy's Wiry sister & childhood doggy companion Judy, who I am naturally named after.
So, look what I've found tucked away in a old shoebox...
Yes, it's HER, the original Judy laughing away!And, who's that scowling little girl looking down upon her?
Why Mummy, of course, aged about 4!
She can't have seen the joke!
Here they are again a year & a bit later in 1959...The lady with them is Auntie Dorothy from Edinburgh.
And, Mummy still looks a 'Little Madam'!
She tells me there should be an album of photo's.

However, we can't find them.
So, this is the first time 'THE' Judy has been seen in Blogland.
Must go and tell our WFT friends.

Hi Judy,
It's good to see you. We haven't heard from you in a while. I thought perhaps Bailey had tied you up in the back room or something. The original Judy sure looks like a fine girl. I'm sure you are proud to be named after her.
Hi Judy!! Imagine our surprise to find you here along with Woodstock! Why we had no idea you had your own blog!! We must say the original picture of your Mum and the most adorable wft is lovely!!! She looked like a barrel of fun(both Mum and the pup!!) Love and kisses A+A
Judy the WFT sure is a cutie! And of course, so are YOU! We might be a tad prejudiced, but who cares!
