My name is Alison. I do enjoy my patchwork. Love rummaging in thrift type shops. Love it better still when I find something vintage that I like. The shop is starting to become home to a few of these pieces.

Fabulous thrift find!!

Have to fit this in among Kims great swap details.



This is the first set....












this is the second set.....














this is the third set.....











this is the fourth set....














this the set facing up.....











and this is the set facing down.






It's just wonderful to have some time off and to be in the right place at the right time. I just happened to walk into a local thrift type store and there as I walked in the door - just happened to be a set of four different coloured cups and saucers sitting there - waiting for me
I'm sure.
Great price $2.00 per set - I couldn't pick them up fast enough. Sooo pretty and not chip or crack in any of them.
Yep - sometimes you can be in the right place at the right time.

Sooo pretty! And for 2.00 a piece, what a steal.

Coffee or tea just tastes better in a pretty cup.

Wonderful find. :)
