Just found a huge box or hedgehog ornaments which I went through a phase of collecting!

Lynda -...Thank you all for your lovely comments. <br /><br />Lynda - our Welsh quilts are rarer and more desirable. I would LOVE to go quilt hunting in the States. If I ever get to holiday there, I am going to bring a huge spare suitcase and fill it with quilting material and quilts!! Hang the excess luggage fees!<br /><br />Simon - I was quite tempted, I have to say. It had such character.<br /><br />Marlene - it was understated but beautifully made and about 400 years old.<br /><br />thelma - I always find any jugs tempting, as I have a limited collection of them (I'd have more!). You'd be surprised how fit you get walking round the big Fleamarkets. Builth isn't really a buying market for us - the odd thing - it's Malvern that is our favourite hunting ground and it takes 6 - 7 hours to get round there on a good day.<br /><br />Pat - those hares were gorgeous. I found it hard to choose between those and the Winstanley cats - both said "buy me"!<br /><br />Rowan - we learn so much at these fairs. We have both had an interest in antiques (furniture primarily) all the time we have been together. Windsor chairs are K's "thing".Bovey Bellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13117332471600275100noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8569181568013465215.post-37274885043889134322015-09-08T14:40:12.678-07:002015-09-08T14:40:12.678-07:00Seeing your photos was almost as good as being the...Seeing your photos was almost as good as being there..thank you!<br />Quilts here go for all sorts of prices. I won't pay much over $50 for one, and I do find them, as well as tons of un quilted tops....lyndahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10273483704912191189noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8569181568013465215.post-11305394073452057082015-09-08T08:22:14.242-07:002015-09-08T08:22:14.242-07:00My mother would rather fancy the little Belgian bi...My mother would rather fancy the little Belgian bird vaseSimon Douglas Thompsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16331409652996600049noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8569181568013465215.post-59622582313422057582015-09-08T07:48:32.983-07:002015-09-08T07:48:32.983-07:00love the walnut chest of drawerslove the walnut chest of drawersPoppypatchworkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12749159567150084975noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8569181568013465215.post-74978636823454701832015-09-08T07:15:43.392-07:002015-09-08T07:15:43.392-07:00

I have no knowledge of antiques at all and only certain kinds of things interest me and since I have absolutely no idea whether what I'm looking at is a genuine piece it's pretty much a waste of time for me to go at all:)Rowanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13679130612798888266noreply@blogger.com
