Birds of a Feather & Sudeley Castle

Last month I visited Sudeley Castle with friends who visited the UK from New Zealand. A worthwhile visit, here a little taste of what you can expect at Sudeley.  There were a dozen samplers, antique lace, an exhibition of Henry VIII and a wonderful exhibit of textiles.

Have a look at Jacqueline’s blog for more information.

Well I could not refrain myself from starting another SAL!!, it’s the famous Birds of a Feather by WMN&T. I started this last week, the linen is Weeks 35ct Confederate Grey, I am using the recommended threads of WDW, and am stitching the sampler with 1 thread only, it's a truly gorgeous sampler and the linen is fabulous :))

Presents from Holland, a lovely set of tea-and-hand towels and beakers made by Hollandsche Waaren, It looks fabulous in our kitchen. Thanks SB :)) Have a look at this Teatowel from Jeanny too, it's a piece of art and not for drying! Who would not want that in their kitchen:))

My friend send me a thank you note but could not stop herself sending me a present!! It’s a lovely little heart card & ceramic bird heart, thank you Bollers!

This BBD kit is a present from a dear friend, thank you J, I love it, I will make this sometime soon :))

Thank you for your comments on my last post, truly inspiring and so appreciated :o) It's always a pleasure to hear from you!
