I did, however, buy the embroidered toaster cover that was sitting underneath said bonnet, as well as a few tatted pieces, assorted doilies and a hand-sewn and embroidered tablecloth...well, I had to give the woman something for taking a photo of history!
updates on some of the days of my life...my general, sometimes mundane (but never BORING!) existence in a green and leafy London suburb- repurposing and crafting, thrifting, vintage-hunting and reporting on the current weather- or lack thereof.
