My Birthday, amongst other things a visit to the Grace Kelly exhibition at the V&A and a real carpet bag that is more Mary Poppins. The carpet bag is a labour of love from the owner of 'Campaign' a treasure-chest of a place in Peasenhall. The carpet is Axeminster and the design was brought back from the Crusades The metal frame was made on a Victorian press and I like the jewel like colours and the craftsmanship.
