Needless to say we will as always have too much stuff, not enough space or coat hangers and have our usual early morning blazing row…but I’m sure it will great fun as was the last one.  It will also be great to catch up with new friends and grab (fingers crossed) loads of vintage bargains.  So if you get a chance please come and see us!!

Out of the cushion came this, fairly plain 1940’s cushion…

We just had to see what was stuffing it!

Two More cushions…beautiful prints, we adore the art deco bathroom one…so nice to find stuff when we’re not even looking for it….

Tracey is going to restuff the ‘mother’ cushion with scraps of vintage fabric, so hopefully someone gets a similar suprise in another 60 or so years time…

Now off to ‘split’ all our other cushions!
