Then where do you empty the feathers from there once you've finished? Or are you making new duvets as a side line??! ;-))<BR/><BR/>The hand painted doilies are so pretty - what a fabulous buy... a craft that you just don't see now-a-days. I'm sure the Kate Greenaway ones will create huge interest. <BR/><BR/>Hope you've had a good day at DH today - now its time to put your feet up now, on a nice footstool perhaps? ;-)) <BR/><BR/>Niki xNiki Fretwellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06453900065526512512noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33920736.post-15191293447333088422009-03-07T16:21:00.000+00:002009-03-07T16:21:00.000+00:00Wow you are a busy bee!

I tried the emptying of an old eiderdown last year and for weeks I was still finding clumps of feathers in the garden, I don't think I would be brave enough to try it again ~ what an exhausting job!<BR/><BR/>I actually met you a while ago at Shepton Mallet (not that I expect you to remember!) and bought the most wonderful cream linen sheets from you, which I have used up ~ they were such fantastic quality. I'm new to blogging, but glad that I've found you again! Hopefully I will get to Shepton Mallet again this year!<BR/><BR/>Love all your new stock!Ali @ Betty and Violethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10995422008800977636noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33920736.post-31061889612283294352009-03-07T08:00:00.000+00:002009-03-07T08:00:00.000+00:00Your painted doilies are gorgeous...I would love t...Your painted doilies are gorgeous...I would love to know who did such beautiful work.<BR/>Have a good weekend ;-)Salhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10991496263250729580noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33920736.post-86395114151913273472009-03-07T02:08:00.000+00:002009-03-07T02:08:00.000+00:00Those painting are just gorgeous!
