Welcome to my site. As a child growing up in Scotland, I found myself fascinated with antique linens, textiles, and fashions. I loved to visit second-hand and antique shops and to explore the romance and mystery that surrounds old things. From there it was in my blood so to speak, and the love affair continues to this day.
