... and Violets

A DigitalNZ Story by Courtney Johnston

This silly little set was made to go with Lilies http://digitalnz.org.nz/user_sets/507774f28d2a4e940400000c On my father's side of the family, three generations back, there were a pair of twin sisters called Lily and Violet. There is a photo, somewhere, of these two little girls, aged about three. They are all sturdy Scottish dourness - there's nothing flowerlike about them. They look like they are going to grow up into the proverbial 6 foot 4 and built like a brick shithouse. I love it.
