Lovely Laura Ashley chintz-it is very pretty chintz and at least a metre and a half-£1!
A golden hands patchwork and applique book-you might like this Anne! I want a patchwork shirt like this but sadly have not got the patience or skill to make one. The picture is just so summery.I got a book about exploring the woodland-quite interesting but not very exciting pictures. Apart from one of a Jay with a very bouffant hairdo!
My favourite purchase though was a World Film Publications 1949 Preview. It has colour pictures of lots of actors of the day as well as articles and photo story strips from films. My favourite part was a section entitled 'The Stars Read The Book Of The Film'
I didn't scan that page though-just a few of the stars themselves. I love the colours in these old photos.
I saw a girl on the train today who looked just like this. (Rita Hayworth-not John McCallum!)
Love the dog tooth checks!
But look what they did to Kathleen!Anne of Gaal Creative has kindly given me an award. Thanks Anne!
Anne makes beautiful cards, is a talented photographer and has just opened an Etsy shop. Go and visit her to find out more!
There are only two rules to follow with this blog award:Post the award on your blog.
Pass it along to whomever you want.
As Anne said, the passing along part is hard-I love lots of blogs. The list is always getting bigger. I am going to choose a few.
1. Siepsfabriek
4. The Dark Raven's Nest (Sonia mentioned above)
I could happily give everyone in my blog list this award really as I love all of them. I don't want anyone to feel left out which is the problem I have choosing only some of them! Indecisive Libra that's me! I love where else they might lead me too with all of their lists. Endless possibilities!
