Museum de Bordados del Paso Azul

Today we went to Lorca, this is our 3rd visit to the city. We took George, Dan and the children there, and did a tour of the castle. There is a great shoe shop there ……….but it all went so wrong …… Jim came out with a pair NOT ME…

I just had to put all these photos on this page, as the needle work, (which is all done by hand) was awesome.

We got to see the ladies embroidering new robes. They work so fast and with such skill.
