My grandmother had "Pomegranate Man", similar to your fisherman. My aunt brought him back from Japan after WWII. Thank you for sharing your lovely design and for stopping by my post.

I made actually three tables during the last year. You can seen them with this link: http://silber-rosen.blogspot.com/search/label/3.2.%20Keramik:%20Italien%20-%20Deruta. When you search on the sidebar, there are several themes listed with different china.<br />I am curious waiting for your next table. Alas I can't participate every Thursday, but will try to make some more tables around the year. Wish you a nice weekend.<br />Greetings, JohannaJohanna Gehrleinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04027107843903985667noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-645394115430726687.post-28070342643888888812011-02-24T22:51:00.414-08:002011-02-24T22:51:00.414-08:00Hello Fabby,

Your Asian table is really lovely. I love this gloriously red tablecloth with the wonderful flowers. I if you didn't mentioned that it was made for Christmas I had never thought. The flowers match perfect with those in the Chinese dishes. It is really amazing how masterfully you mix and match the different items and it is a pure Asian table. I love your blog and I will follow you, also. Isn't internet a great thing.<br />Best greetings, JohannaJohanna Gehrleinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04027107843903985667noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-645394115430726687.post-83236101528316774592011-02-24T09:51:40.459-08:002011-02-24T09:51:40.459-08:00Love your charger plates. are they real in golden ...Love your charger plates. are they real in golden colour? look pretty...

What a delight it is to visit you ...Dearest Fabby,<br /><br />What a delight it is to visit you and see your gorgeous collections so artfully displayed! I love reading about your precious heirloom pieces, and I love seeing how you intermingle them with items you've collected over the years. I think of world class museums and the exoticism of faraway international bazaars whenever I view your tables.<br /><br />You asked how many yards of fabric it would take to drape a typical dining table. I don't know offhand. The ones I used were sold as window coverings (like long scarves hemmed on both ends). If I were buying fabric to make them, I'd measure the length of the table, add the drop from tabletop to floor, and at least an extra two feet to allow for hemming and "puddling" (if you want them to "flow" onto the floor). Unless it's very wide fabric, like that intended for making quilts, you'll probably need to do two long "scarves," overlap them in the center, and add a runner down the center to cover the "seam." You could also actually sew seams that would go along the edges of the tabletop. Does that make sense? I hope so. <br /><br />Hope you have a wonderful weekend!<br />BillBillhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15467769804679511645noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-645394115430726687.post-52858362286413429822011-02-17T11:25:00.996-08:002011-02-17T11:25:00.996-08:00Fabby, I love the Asian inspired table setting, bu...Fabby, I love the Asian inspired table setting, but I must say I am seriously impressed that you embroidered that tablecloth!! Did you do that by hand or with a machine? Your pattern and color mixes were refreshing from the typical Asian concepts we typically see. Great eye for inspiration! Well done. <br /><br />Mindy @ The Howell Blessings.The Howell Blessingshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05025078516647293036noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-645394115430726687.post-60826680057228178252011-02-17T07:33:00.086-08:002011-02-17T07:33:00.086-08:00HI Fabby!
