This week we bought a beautiful collection of vintage linens from a woman who brought them along to our stall Cambridge Market.

All the tablecloths, dressing table mats and cushion covers are painstakingly embroidered and you can see hours of work has gone into creating the designs.

I find the use of colour and shape in the chair back design most striking. Which one do you like best?
