New A5 Vintage Style Screen Prints

I've been working for a while on these prints and finally they are complete! I have 2 finished prints so far, a collection of 3 egg cups and a little oil or vinegar jug, both in Hornsea Heirloom pattern. I plan to add to the collection in time, with different items and patterns.

These prints are available to buy now from my Etsy and Folksy shops at £11 each.

I Know an Old Lady - Retro Children's book

Found this gem of a children's book last week on one of my many trips to village fayres. Some brilliant illustrations in it by Abner Graboff, was born in 1919, to two Russian immigrants living in New Jersey. I love his quirky pictures! The book was first published in 1961.
