Lunch picnic and green tea swiss roll

Hi everyone!

I hope you all are enjoying this hot summery day! My husband and I went to our nearby park for lunch picnic today.

A very good friend of us gave us a vintage picnic set as a wedding gift last year and I finally use it as a set.
The lovely old-fashioned plastic cups and plates made my picnic look very cute!

I am thinking about making something with green tea (Maccha) powder tonight.
The last two pictures are 1. green tea swiss roll, 2. green tea macaron

I have been baking a few things with green tea last few weeks.. it's almost obsessive.. :)

Until next time, have a lovely week and enjoy the summer.

Thank you for reading again.

Vintage table linens

Hi everyone!

This is my first post of this blog since I started last week!
It was also the first proper summerly weekend in England this year!
I really hope you enjoyed the sunshine. :)

I was with my husband at his parents' house in Sussex for a cricket match with local people. (How English summer is that!)
Lots of families and friends from young to old plus many dogs. (I am more into dogs rather than cricket...)

Then, my mother-in-law gave me plenty of old table linens that she was given from her own mother!
My mother-in-law knows that I love sewing and told me I could use them to create. How wonderful is that!!

Here is the picture of the collection of table linens. (And the pudding I had with mother-in-laws lovely chocolate cake as yesterday was her daughter's birthday.)
I'm so excited to make something new out of those fabrics!

I'm looking forward to showing my work with them some day... :)
I am going to show you some items I already made this summer soon anyway.

Until then, have a lovely summerly week!  See you soon!
