Right from laying them, with my Dad, as a little girl on my Nanna's grave to my lovely hubby sending me 24 red roses the day after we first met!
....and it wasnt until the other day when I decided to look through our pile of quilts that I realised how far the addiction had got...you see I decided to sell some (quilts) on a well known auction site to raise some money for chrimbo!
When I came across these two below a crocheted one and this pretty duck edged blue durham quilt...these had been lost and tucked away in amoungst all the others...I was thrilled to find them!
I laid the crocheted one on the bed to take some pictures of it (below) and just couldn't bare to part with it as it looked so pretty on our bed! Right I shall try the next one!
The same thing happened quite a few times! but I wasn't really wasting my time, as I was rediscovering all my old quilts and blankets that I had totally forgot I had! I was in Quilt heaven!
Speak soon my lovely friends.
Love Happy x
Hi Happy,
ReplyDeleteReally lovely rosie things you have there! I love the crochet quilt I don't think I would be able to part with that either!
If you want to be in with a chance of adding another one to your collection I'm doing a charity raffle over on my blog for a really pretty double eiderdown.

I totally agree with both the love of roses....and keeping those beautiful quilts to yourself. I wouldn't part with them either!!
ReplyDeleteHey Happy, I'd be boiling hot lay in bed as I wouldn't be able to decide which one of those lovelies to use, so I'd have to put ALL of them on and suffer for their beauty haha!! Mad as a Hatter as always eh?! x
ReplyDeleteI love roses, eiderdowns & linens too. I can definitely see why you don't want to sell them, they're soooo beautiful!!!

I couldn't have parted with them either! They are stunning, you need a hotel that way you can dress all the beds in wonderful quilts and vintage linen and we can all come stay!

ReplyDeleteHaha I was holding my breath there ready to whizz over to your shop! I don't blame you for not wanting to let them go!!! I'm very excited about my logo tonight! Lots of love, Amanda xxx
ReplyDeleteI know what you mean girl. I keep thinking I should sell my stash of vintage table cloths but then I get them out and fall in love all over again. Roses are my very favorite too. They make me happy whether they grow in my garden, stand in my vase or rest on my fabrics.

ReplyDeleteIncredibly lovely post :}
ReplyDeleteMmmmmmm.....Thanks so much for a little peak into the linens closet! After I finish my cup of tea (yes, we had breakfast together once again!) I am inspired to go take a peak into my long ago stashed beauties and see what is deserving of some "air time". I think I'll bring out all the reds for the holidays. I'm off!
ReplyDeleteI adore roses, too! My sweet mama has always loved them also and has always had many varieties of them in her garden! I love them not only for their beauty, but because they make me think of her!
