This part of my blog is all about the things I collect or the things I make myself. I love so many things, I paint and draw and want to learn oils and pastels. I knit and crochet but want to learn tatting. I embroider and can turn my hand to most things given a chance. So much still to learn and do. I live in hope of some day reading all my books, learning all I want to learn and now I am learning to blog. You will often find my original poems, poor as they are I offer them here. I also appreciate other people art and will feature things I find that I have enjoyed. That includes pictures of fairies and fantasy or maybe just anything beautiful.
I try to use my own photo's as much as possible, sometimes I borrow from the web. If I inadvertently use your picture without giving credit, please do let me know and I will either credit or remove it, I hope you will do the same with mine.
If you wish to leave comments on my blog you can do that by joining google if you do not have a blog yourself, please comment if you can I appreciate that.

Pillow Cases...................

I have for a long time collected old (vintage) pillow cases. They are so soft for one thing. Nothing like what you get today. I like to starch them so they look crisp and cool but they are still so soft. The old linens have worn to perfection.

I have some really nice ones and some OK ones but all of them were done with love by someone. I also love those edged with lace. I prefer those to actually use.

Here are a couple more of the embroidered ones. I think I have a few others on my side bar.

    They're beautiful. I have several sets that my Mom embroidered. I should do a post on them. Thanks for sharing!
