The miniatures on top are delightful! In particular, your egg cupboard, which looks as good as any of the other items on the table, so you must be a better woodworker than you give yourself credit for. Opening doors and all! I was always fascinated by those lacy doilies weighted with beads that people used to put on top of jugs, I had never seen a miniature one before that I can remember, so it's lovely to see you have made one!<br /><br />hugs<br />Andy xAndyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03064247140624108019noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2181168266655950739.post-55588710173484873262014-07-28T03:31:33.427+02:002014-07-28T03:31:33.427+02:00Hello Jonquil!

Your teapot is a small wonder and the items that you made go so well with the items that you bought! I love the addition of the beads to the doily to give the jug a cottage style cover! I may have to "borrow" that idea from you, so Thank You! :D<br />I am full of suspense about seeing your finished Stumpwork! I took the opportunity to see more of the full-sized pieces on Pinterest. Knowing the quality of needlework that you do, makes the excitement of viewing your miniature version, that much more intense. :D<br /><br />elizabethelizabeth shttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09042037455600427075noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2181168266655950739.post-87153947206011571982014-07-26T12:11:29.692+02:002014-07-26T12:11:29.692+02:00What a great table, Jonquil, I love the colour you...What a great table, Jonquil, I love the colour you have gone for.
