A couple of weeks ago at the flea market, I found an amazing old eiderdown- the one in the top picture above. It's made from a silky cotton that is soft with age and has a row of small shell buttons along one edge. I love it very much. After a good wash and airing in the sun, it's now happily living on our mustard yellow sofa. One day I hope we can find a sofa that's not mustard yellow vinyl, but until then the new flea market find is a good cover for it. (And besides, browny-yellow furniture plus jumping children is a match made in heaven.)
There's a lot of yellow in the house today- yellow roses on the kitchen table, some small purses I made from vintage fabrics, and a sprig of daphne in a yellow jug. Have a good Tuesday!
