obsessed with Emma Bridgewater

I am not 'preoccupied' with Emma Bridgewater. I want to make that clear. Though I do admire and adore her work. And have a few pieces.

But obsessed? What a word. Such implications. The Husband travelled to Spain a few years ago. Would asking him to bring home some pieces of pottery only available in the shops in England be obsessive? He had a 6-hour layover at Heathrow. That's in England.

DISCLAIMER: I've been collecting EB since 1993. None of these lovely items were paid for by anyone other than myself - or family and friends as generous birthday/Christmas/special occasion gifts. All obsessing over views about Emma Bridgewater and her company and its products are my own.
