Linen love……and flying pigs!


Another beautiful spool of white linen yarn to add to 
my collection. Found at SuzAnna's Antiques.


A quick stop at SuzAnna's last Saturday 
afternoon - before torrential rain fell - to look 
about the shop, hug granddaughter Jasmin working there, 
and gift co-owner sweet Jenny with a little special gift 
I found in Sweden for her 'Flying Pig' collection.




My spool collection is about to outgrow the French dough bowl 
so perhaps I'll stop now! What's next? Who knows? Like
many of we women of a certain age, 'downsizing' is becoming 
our mantra. Maybe collecting days are over for me. I'll 
just love what I have, enjoy glancing at my bits and bobs 
as I wander through the cottage, repositioning as I go 
instead of adding more. 
That said - have you seen the current gorgeous bowls 
at Anthropologie? How about their exquisite candles? Sigh.

What do you enjoy collecting? 
Are you still adding to your ongoing collections, 
or perhaps thinking of starting a new collection?
We would love to know!
