Well the children are all at school now , my youngest daughter ," hope" had her first day yesterday which went ok , i remained strong ive been very upset about her going for a few days now so i didnt want her to see me upset again so i tried to be strong, hope was was very tearful at first but then went off quite happily, felt my heart strings pulling so after a lovely walk across the fields with my dog "bobby"i popped into town to my all time favourite shopThis is a table display as you walk through the entrance , i felt like plonking myself down and ordering tea and cakes !! but i refrained and walked round taking a few pictures instead
This bed is so gorgeous with the dressing table next to it
Its such a lovely shop , i didnt buy anything even though i saw loads of things i wanted , it was very hard to leave empty handed i must say !
Caths new book (i say that as if i know her personally , but i dont)anyway her new book "patch "is out next month and ive put my name down to go to an book opening night type thing , its where you can go into the shop one evening , have tea and cakes and there will be people demonstrating how to make things from the book , i went to the last one , it was heavenly and i learnt how to cross stitch, they provide all the fabrics cotton etc and you can join in , its very relaxing and there are only about 50 people so its very small and lovely, so i cant wait for that , hope your all well love francine x
Hi,
ReplyDeleteThanks very much for visiting my blog, I can see we have a patchwork obsession in common! I'll be looking forward to my trip to York next month, especially Betty's Tearoom!

ReplyDeleteI do love Cath Kidston. Or rather her goods! I sure would love to visit her York shop, looks like a treasure. Well done you for walking out of there without any purchases...
ReplyDeleteI am so glad you stopped by my blog and left a message, so that I could find your delightful blog. I love your pretty patchwork quilts and crochet. I am sure to come back :)
oh how wonderful...i found the one near Covent Garden last time i was in London visiting a ffriend- but sadly it was such a tourist trap i couldn't see anything from all the people- it wasnt as big or had the lovely interior displays of tables, beds and dressing rooms- beautiful photographs thanks for sharing ;0)x
ReplyDeleteOh my GOD. So perfect I could cry. I love that bed. I think that cloth on the table reminds me of a stripey blanket I had as a nipper.
ReplyDeleteLovely to find your blog and am now following, as well as drooling at these gorgeous pics!
Hi Francine,thankyou for popping over to my blog and for leaving a comment.I love CK too ,thankyou for sharing the lovely photos.take care,julie.xx
ReplyDeleteThank you for following my blog - now I have found you, I am your new follower!
ReplyDeleteThe CK shops are heavenly aren't they. I love the mix of new (mostly) and vintage (a little).
I had to look twice at the picture of the bed and gorgeous flower-y chest of drawers though - the headless body putting on the socks is rather eerie to say the least!
Hello I just found your gorgeous blog, how could I have missed you! We have much in common , do visit me
