We are Sailing...

I've been waiting for a treasury slot since posting my last 'Quote of the Week' and got one last night! I didn't think that I would because I was expecting the next slot to be open in the middle of the night and I wasn't going to stay up late just for a treasury!!
Inspired by John Masefield's 'Sea Fever' poem I chose items with a sea/ sailing theme. Here is a screen shot of my treasury:

You can see the treasury in full here on Etsy.

Quote of the week...

This week the quote is actually from the poem 'Sea Fever';

I must go down to the seas again, to the lonely sea and the sky,
And all I ask is a tall ship and a star to steer her by.
And the wheel's kick and the wind's sing and the white sail's shaking,
And a grey mist on the sea's face and a grey dawn breaking. - John Masefield

There's no particular reason why I chose this for 'quote of the week' other than I like the poem! I'm thinking that my next Etsy treasury may have a sea theme... :)
