What's at the bottom of your garden ................


Look what's growing in mine - I love rhubarb and think it is very under-rated - my first batch will be going into a crumble tomorrow morning .......


Now for the linens I purchased at the auction yesterday - I have had a lovely day - pegged the first lot out at 7.30 this morning and have spent most of the day washing, pegging out, starching and ironing it - the last batch is ready for tomorrow. It is amazing that two dirty old boxes of what initially looks like rags can be transformed into such lovelies with a little TLC ............


Tray cloths, doilies, table covers, a cute little pram pillowcase with an embroidered teddy, most are hand embroidered with cut work on some - crinoline lady, flowers, oriental designs ..





There is also a little hand-made baby bib, a white cotton blouson top with crochet front panel, an Sanderson floral fabric table runner
