These two lovely pieces are beautifully done and I am so pleased with them they will look lovely in our country cottage.
Gina's love of the embroidered pieces has me now looking every place I go to find some nice pieces to dress my home.
I found these in Castlemaine early this week.
One is a beautiful Rose design with rich colours the other one is a runner with a various coloured wattle design I think! :o) Gina may know more then I.
All I know is they are beautifully worked treasures.

Thank you for visiting .Nice to hear from another Aussie girl. How wonderful to have 7 grandchildren. I'm glad you enjoyed the pictures on my blog.
Hi Lee-Ann:-) Thank you so much for coming by my blog and leaving a comment...I sure hope it won't be your last visit!! Of course I just had to come over and see your blog...I've read a few of your posts already and I can see I'll be a regular visitor:-) Could I please post you in my blog links? Looking forward to getting to know you better:-) Lovely doilies by the way!!
Hi Lee-Ann,
I saw where you dropped by my blog and thought I would say Hidy.
These table scarfs are very pretty...in my younger years I used to do embroidery like this...since I had to get tri-focals I don't even attempt it any more...besides...seems like I'm way too busy blogging...lol!
You have a nice day and come back and see me any time!!
:-D
These are so pretty! Gina inspires me with her treasures too. I'm glad you came over to visit me and left a comment =)...thanks! I was bidding on a luncheon plate? because of seeing your gorgeous dishs in one of your posts, but then I let it go, I was afraid the postage would be very high. I can't remember the name of that plate for the life of me just now. It was a wonderful crinoline lady in a flower garden like a watercolor painting.
Thanks Lee-Ann, they were something my mom always made and gave as gifts.
Hi Lee-ann, what lovely finds! Hard to tell without a close look, but the runner definitely isn't wattle - it looks more like an Oriental floral design. The crocheted edge sets it off beautifully.
Love your teacosies too - I have two knitted ones that my MIL did for me. One is an Owl, and the other a crinoline lady-style with one of those porcelain (?) half dolls on top. Of course I have a hundred or so embroidered teacosies as well, but they are just ornamental without their padded inserts!
