Now to be fair it looks old; however is it real, I do not know.  I paid $30 for it because I love it regardless of whether it is real or not.  It certainly looks real.  It's now hanging in my sewing room.

I found a lovely little Fabric and Yarn store called Bee Quilt in Niagara on the Lake.  They stock Liberty Fabric from London which is gorgeous, however at $35 a yard it's pricey.  They also stock Kaffe Fassett fabric which is a little cheaper.  I picked up a baby quilt set from the Riley Blake collection called Little Red Riding Hood.

I have been coveting these glasses for a while in Chapters, but at $8 each thought they were too expensive.

So imagine my delight when I was in Chapters on the weekend and they were 50% off.  They are glass and as I was saying to the cashier I think we can put the plastic Tupperware beakers away for a little while!!  They look as good close up:

Can't believe we are half way through July, the month is flying by.
