Wearing purple today in memory of friend, mentor and colleague Christine Book.
Remembering Christine's passion for designing, skill with needle and thread and her enthusiasm to share this with everyone she met.
Remembering her love and laughter and happy times at Mamre House.

Only heard about Christine at the weekend, very sad Marg. She was a brilliant designer and a beautiful person, she will be missed.

I love Christine Book designs and my pin cushion is one from her pattern book I own, have had it for years and still to this day love it, I am glad I read this post as I was not aware of her passing, she has left many memories through her designs, Lyn, Brisbane

Christine had a great send off- laughter and tears. Her work and passion for stitching and creating will live on forever in her students, her friends, her family and in her many, many projects. Little patches of Christine will appear in may new projects.
