A Talent For Textiles At Deans Court

ATFT12 
In May Deans Court hosted 'A Talent For Textiles' and I spent the whole day pinching myself to make sure I wasn't about to wake up from a very lovely dream (and to remind myself that I was in fact at work).

A Talent For Textiles is organised by the lovely Linda Clift and Caroline Bushell and it is made up of stalls selling antique and vintage textiles, clothing, lace, accessories and costumes from a selection of the South West's best antique textile dealers.

I finally got to meet the lovely Liz of 'The Washerwoman' fame, discovered the beautiful world of Donna Flower and visited an all time favourite at Old Albion.

I could have bought the whole room, far too many beautiful things in one place.

If you would like to know more about A Talent For Textiles then visit Linda's blog here.  For more Deans Court news then head on over to the Facebook, we update it reguarly and i'm sure some of you will want to see more from my colleague, Orlando the Goat.

  1. Ohhh, that DOES look like a dream come to life!! I spy some achingly gorgeous gowns in that second-to-last photo; swoon! There's a big annual antique textile market not too far from us which I keep meaning to visit, although I am not sure that would be at all wise for my bank account ;)

    1. Aww I had a feeling that you might know them! They are all so lovely, I'm going to make the effort (and get my driving up to scratch) so I can travel a little further and go to more of their fairs. Then hopefully I will get to meet you too.
      I didn't have as much money as I would have liked but I got a beautiful 1920's bed cap, some lovely ribbon and a couple of millinery flowers. I promise to share.
      I hope you have a lovely time at Frome with the ladies. xxx
