I've treated myself to a few pretty little things that I really didn't need but they just looked so perfect....................
The first thing I spotted on my shopping trip was a pack of adorable tea towels that had a lovely vintage look about them, then two little chintzy jugs and lastly a lovely metal framed basket with a linen cover and to make it even better they were great bargains so far too good to resist.
I've had a little play with one of the tea towels, I added a blanket stitch edge and then crocheted a little edging with half trebles and trebles. I think I will edge them all.
Doesn't my pretty tea towel look good on the washing line - hanging such pretty washing out is a treat in its self.
Before I forget I've just started to use Instagam again not very much to see at the moment but if you want to have a peep I've put an Instagram button on my sidebar - I was very proud of my technical skills but maybe should have chosen a bigger button as you could easily miss it.
