Presents from Burton Agnes

I visited an artist friend today who is on the red bus again at Burton Agnes Hall doing her animal portraits. Wonderful paintings as usual and absolutely glorious weather, I think she orders it to coincide with her residency!


Had a lovely surprise when my friend presented me with a bag of fabric remnants with some rather groovy batik material in there too.
The shops at BA have some lovely stuff in, I had to restrain myself and bought something practical. Take a look at the wonderful vintage wrapper on this soap, it smells absolutely divine, if you like that sort of disinfectanty smell.
