This little chappie was so adorable I could've taken him home with me (and the contents of his shop!!)

Italian textiles...sigh.

I know what you mean Lori - I spent ages in this little shop and she was more than happy to let me rummage through all her wares ...

I'm wondering about Italian brocades.....and wood suiting...mmmm.

What a pretty dog--looks like my first-born, chummy!

Hi Newfienurse!... fellow Canadian, aye? Just curious...how did things grow on the rock this summer? looks like a little border collie ...smart as a whip, they are!!
Oh!.... and Terry, it was a typo...I don't sew wood suiting!!!lol.

Things grew well, until..About 2 weeks in august we had very strong winds with quite a bit of rain, tore the s**t outta my annuals, had to cut them all down..took a couple of weeks to recover :( ...where are you, lori???
