Voices in French

It rains gently.
I am doing some embroidery on a piece of white linen in white threads while listening to the sound of raindrops.
Form time to time, talking voices reach my ears from outside.
The people having a conversation seem to be French women, but I can not tell what they are saying.*

[* Other alternatives are: "what they are talking about", "what they are speaking [about]".]

Voices in French

It rains gently.
I am doing some embroidery on a piece of white linen in  (maybe "with" ?) white threads while listening to the sound of raindrops.
Form ("from") time to time, talking voices reach my ears from outside. ("from outside reach my ears" seems better, as in the French version)
The people having a conversation seem to be French women, but I can not ("cannot" without space is common) tell what they are talking about.("talking about", "about" is necessary when using "talking" with "what")
