Teaset of Crinoline Ladies

Because of my little flyer advertising the launch of the latest Stitchery Booklet called "Crinoline China" I received a very excited phonecall from an embroidery lady saying that she owns the Teaset featured.

Apparently an inherited set from a favourite relative, she was so thrilled to see the "Lavender Crinoline" featured in my booklet.

Often referred to as "Pompadour Crinoline" because of the hairdo. Sitting in her English garden complete with sundial and thatched Cottage in the background.

The embroiderers Hubby was immediately sent to photograph the beautiful collection for us all to admire.

Thanks so much.

After the phonecall, I visited the Toowoomba Antiques Gallery, Margaret St in Toowoomba and Richard Dowe has 6 trio set available at approx $65 a set, but will do a deal.

So try hunting through the Antique shops to spot the different Crinoline ladies

My  stitchery version in " Crinoline China" of the "Lavender Lady" one of 12 completely new Crinolines. available on Website at the end of the month.

Such beautiful china, Ella.So fine and much attention to detail. My favourite part is the painting and decoration on the inside of the tea cups.
Hope your Christmas and New Year were pleasant.
A new year means more designs, more stitcheries, more sore fingers.
Can't wait to see you in Melbourne for the AQC
