Kelmscott


A little wile ago I visited a place called Kelmscott , it is famous for being the home of William Morris. My fife has a liking for some of his designs as we have curtains made from the Strawberry Thief Fabric. Kelmscott is not an easy place to get to but it is worth the effort if you do.







Before going in the house we had a cup of tea on the lawn here





which is made in the small cafeteria here and most of it is home made 





on the back wall you can see some of his designs 
and in the garden a mulberry tree which gave him some of the inspiration.





No doubt he wandered round looking a all the plants





or even along here




The tree can be seen from the house through the windows





I doubt the roses along here were there then




but no doubt these wheels were on a cart at the house
 and the apple trees which were in blossom
 If you would like to see more of my trip to Kelmscott then visit my other Blog which is a bit more in depth . Taking part in Our World Tuesday
