I caught the bug two years ago when I purchased my aunt's collection of Blue Willow. I've also started collecting Spode Christmas Tree. Does this mean production of Spode Christmas Tree is also going to Asia. If so, I'm with stickhorsecowgirls as that makes me very nervous.

All the Woolworths stores finally closed this week. A name that has been on the high street my whole life. So sad. I just hope with the likes of Wedgewood that someone takes over or at least buys up all the archives and patterns to store in a responsible way so that they are never lost.LinenandRoseshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13109282224996790623noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6974257.post-13308197406434499752009-01-07T20:47:00.000-05:002009-01-07T20:47:00.000-05:00Your pieces are lovely.
