a PRoPeR Tea

I was invited to a quilt showing by a sweet lady I know. I am always so thrilled to see different quilts, my eyes can't get enough of colors and patterns and textures. I was not disappointed looking at all of her beautiful quilts, each stitch had been sewn with love. I can't thank her enough for sharing those treasures with me. I appreciate all craftmanship I encounter and this was no exception.

I was also treated to a beautiful tea. It was so beautiful, I was afraid to drink and eat off of her gorgeous dinnerware. She took the time to patiently explain some of the aspects of 'the tea' and just look at those beautiful folded rose napkins! That is how keen her attention to detail is. She had some fresh canteloupe along with some delicious sweet baked goods like her homemade shortbread. I have NEVER had better shortbread than hers.

Wouldn't this table make you feel special? What a gracious hostess!






Thank you so much for sharing your treasures with me. I cannot tell you how special this was and I thoroughly enjoyed the entire morning :o) You are very special and I am so happy that we met! This was my first official tea party and I hope it's the beginning of many :o)
