I had a lovely Birthday yesterday. It was sunny and almost 40 degrees outside. I sure couldn't ask for anything better as far as the weather goes!
As planned, Bubba took me to the antique mall in Volo, Illinois. It's a huge antique mall and just a hop, skip and jump from where we live. I found a few nice vintage goodies to add to my stash.
First, a few vintage hankies:
The blue one is flocked! I have a few in my collection from my flea market travels.
Next, I found 2 yards of this beautiful machine embroidered fabric:
I love the scalloped edge on this! And 2 yards will go a long way for what I do with it.
Next, I found this gorgeous vintage apron:
I almost hate to cut it up because it's in mint condition. It just needs a good hand wash. But I did buy it to cut up for my crazy quilting.
Last but not least, this pair of sweet vintage bunnies:
Yes, I'm always thinking of Spring!
Today, we'll be going over to mom's for a few hours.
I hope ya'll have a wonderful Christmas Day!
All great finds but that apron is to die for... If you do cut it up and put pieces on etsy...let me know... What a great husband that will take you to a antique mall for your birthday.. Have a restful day and remember the days are getting longer now!!! Ger
