Any excuse to give to tea with friends! I usually do tea with friends or family once or twice a week. Today I had a visit from my Worthy Matron, Worthy Patron and "Electa" from Eastern Star. I hadn't seen them for a few years and now that we're back in Salt Lake City I'm so pleased to join them at Star again.
 
 
With baby teething I didn't have a lot of time to entertain him while getting ready so no chance to change, I just wore my boring ol' house dress.
 
     

It was just blackberry tea and my famous
cream scones today since it was at two o'clock.
A tablecloth makes it a formal tea but I just terribly love my linens!
    
 




My Berkshire Ware and Nobility plate, Caprice, are my favourite sets. Sunny linen of green and yellow on white to brighten up this somewhat gloomy spring day.
 

Just a little rest in the garden afterwards. Not tired, just dreamy lids like Marlene Dietrich.

    1. Wow thank you so very much. That's kind of you to say! I really feel anything but beautiful at the moment but that's being a mummy! And that's ok. I made the dress from my favourite lawn and didn't like it so much after the finished product, but oh well! It's a good "hang around" number. Thank you again, your kindness means a lot!

  5. Your dress is so pretty! It reminds me a somewhat similar 1980s does 40s coral-pink and white polka dot frock that I have. I don't think I've worn it in three years though, and have zero clue why that is. I'll have to give it a whirl again this summer.

    Tons of hugs,
    ♥ Jessica

    1. Thank you Jessica! You really should get it out again, I'd love to see it! This one I made, I saw a photograph of Lucien lelong's sister with it on and had to have it. I'm always knocking off celebrity fashions!
