I bought some thing special today

Today whilst running some errands I noticed that there was a little craft show on in one of the usually empty shops so I had to pop in and have a look.  They had many gorgeous hand made items from cross stitches, tree decorations and hand made quilts.  The lady who makes the patch work quilts (Eileen Mary Higgins) was there stitching away at some felt teddies which she had sold already before they were even finished!

Anyway after a long chat with the 3 ladies and after getting all the quilts out that I liked and having a good look at them. I chose this one this is the front but the back is gorgeous too as she chose a fab flowery plain fabric. 

I absolutely love it!

I also bought some fabric christmas gift bags which are such a great idea!  10% of the quilt money goes to the Air Ambulance based down this way which was another great reason to buy!

Tommorrow is little musings day so pop back then and also dont forget my candy!

Tea Cup Tuesday

I am late today eeekkk and I have missed a few tea cup tuesdays due to being a little busy, I am here now with this weeks special t cup and it has a fab little story.

This tea cup and saucer has been pretty much from one side of the world to the other.  My dear friend sue asked me a few weeks ago if I would like to have this precious little set, of course I said yes!!! Sue has owned this since she was a little girl, (we wont go into how long ago that is) she is still 21 of course!!!  When she moved over here to the UK her mother sent over her things including this.  Now if I remember rightly Sue said it used to sit on her dressing table.  It is in immaculate condition and I adore it, I am so greatful to have it as part of my collection and I will treasure it always.  So it has been across the world and then across half of the Uk to get here to me!

It is made by Wood's England and is a miniature cup and saucer.

Thanks for popping by!
