Look at these beautiful paper flowers by Mandy Pattullo of Thread and Thrift. Aren't they lovely? Made from old letters, crepe paper and pages from Tennyson's "In Memoriam", the flowers are part of a piece by Mandy titled "Remember Me". You can read more about this project on Mandy's blog here.

Due for release in October, The Liberty Book of Home Sewing by Lucinda Ganderton looks quite lovely. With projects including quilts, cushions, tote bags and aprons, I think this one will definitely be making it's way into my library. I love the hexagon quilt below, and the little dress is just gorgeous (although I don't think the dress pattern is included in the book). You can see a preview at the Liberty blog.

Two of my favourite things - porcelain plates and vintage cars! I love these wallpapers from UK company Catkin Collection (you might have seen their birdhouse wallpaper before), a great example of a simple idea where the end result is quite stunning. Yet another great find from Jeska at Lobster & Swan!
