In Sunday's post, I mentioned that we were heading out to a flea market that day. It didn't turn to be terribly grand but I did find a huge pack of vintage embroidery transfers:
These are from the Superior Transfer Company. It isn't marked Superior but it has the iron on it which is their logo. Anyway, this pack is complete with only 2 sheets cut but all pieces are here and none of these are in my collection! A really nice find!
I don't have any stitching to share with you today. I bought a few books over the weekend so I curled up in my chair yesterday afternoon and just read until Dancing With The Stars came on. I love that show!
Anyway, I thought you would enjoy having one of the patterns from my new "vintage transfer" pack:
Being that it's Harvest Time and that Thanksgiving is coming up, this one seems to be a nice choice. Click on the image to go to my Flickr site where you can view and print the large version. I use a lightbox but you can tape it to a window and then using a washout blue pen, trace the design onto muslin or quilter's cotton. This pattern would be great for Crayon Tinting!
Enjoy everyone!
Quick note: here's the link to the Crayon Tinting Tutorial that I wrote last Summer.

That's so nice of you to share the basket! I love baskets, and I love Thanksgiving! What a great find!
Thank you Pam for the lovely pattern - can't wait to use it on a CQ piece!
Wow, thanks Pam! I have a few of those old type of transfers around here somewhere... the basket pattern is quite lovely! I really like how the crayon tinting looks in person! that bunny door hanger is wonderful! thanks for the info on how to do it! I only have about 500 crayola crayons left over from the kids using them thru the years to play with, LOL...
Thanks again, Kris
