Friday Folksy

i know it's not friday yet but as i didn't get around to doing a friday folksy last week and will be even busier tomorrow than i am today i thought i'd steal away with a cup of tea browse the scrumptious goodies in folksy whilst i wait for the studio to warm to somewhere above freezing so that my fingers will function...........
anyone who knows me will know that i have a bit of a thing about the colour green. i wouldn't call it an obsession as such but my green fabric stash is definitely my biggest!
so here are some lovely green things made by some very talented crafts people.
click on the images to link direct to the folksy shops.

when it comes to books i am and always will be an unashamed folder of the corner of the page...this seems to bring out the 'marmite' reaction in people...they either love or loathe this behavior. some see it as wrecking the book somehow. i LOVE books and believe they are to be used and cherished and don't mind pencil notes in the margin or folded pages however if i lend you a book take note that i do not respond well to torn pages or books being used as coasters!!!!!! you have been warned.
now if i am borrowing a book i wouldn't do any of the above of course so i'd need a lovely bookmark like this

this little bear is beautiful and not just because it's green

love this cushion....i ran a book club for eight years!! will have to add this to my wish list.
not sure why this came up in my green search but i'm putting it in anyway.

that really must be it for today as the studio is now filled with warmth (i live in hope) and work is calling...just make a quick cup of tea before i start.

enjoy.
