Taken for the Smile on Saturday theme of Fancy Fabrics. I have spent ages faffing around trying to get a shot I am happy with using all different fabrics but this is the best I could manage! The fabric is blurry just in case anyone thought it was out of focus! HSoS!
York Minster, formally the Cathedral and Metropolitical Church of Saint Peter in York, is an Anglican cathedral in the city of York, North Yorkshire, England. The minster is the seat of the archbishop of York, the second-highest office of the Church of England, and is the mother church for the diocese of York and the province of York. It is administered by its dean and chapter. The minster is a Grade I listed building and a scheduled monument.
The first record of a church on the site dates to 627; the title "minster" also dates to the Anglo-Saxon period, originally denoting a missionary teaching church and now an honorific. The minster undercroft contains re-used fabric of c. 1160, but the bulk of the building was constructed between 1220 and 1472. It consists of Early English Gothic north and south transepts, a Decorated Gothic nave and chapter house, and a Perpendicular Gothic eastern arm and central tower.
The minster retains most of its medieval stained glass, a significant survival among European churches. The east window, which depicts the Last Judgment, is the largest expanse of medieval stained glass in the world. The north transept contains the Five Sisters window, which consists of five lancets, each over 53 feet (16.3 m) high, filled with grisaille glass.

Though it was quite pricy so I only got a small pice, thinking maybe I should make it into a cute dress for one of bigger girls...
This bouquet will get better wtih age and is sure to brighten up even a cold winter's night.

Tuesday was my first day back at work and it all went very well. One of my favorite things to do when I first get to work is to fold all the clean towels that the techs who work overnight launder. That morning I carried several loads of clean, but unfolded towels, out to a counter in the treatment area and then started talking to someone. When I returned to the towels, I found Alexander Hamilton had tunneled his way into the middle of the pile and had fallen asleep.

Happy Caturday: Fabric
Although a church at Sundridge is mentioned in Domesday Book (1086), the earliest visible fabric is perhaps of the 12th century on the north-facing hill above the main east-west road (A25), it lies on Kent Weald
