Rescued and Revived

This lovely couple from the 1940's were promoting the Waterworks at War event at Kew Bridge Steam Museum, they kindly agreed to a photograph outside the Rescued and Revived Stall at the Kew Green midsummer Fete. Botkin and Galliers have been taking the make do and mend work ethic to wonderful lengths to create more of their stunning blankets, cushions and tea cosies. You can read more on their blog. Rescued and Revived will next be appearing at the Barnes Village Fair on the 10th July.
