More designs for pillowcases. Back in the old days, you could purchase what was called "pillow tubing" by the yard. It was fabric for pillow cases, woven in a tube and all you had to do was finish the ends.
When I make pillowcases now, I just go to WalMart and buy a pair of white pillowcases already done. Unfortunately, they have a 3 inch hem on them so the design isn't exactly where I want it. They're simple enough to make so one of these days I'll start making my own. You know, when "time" starts growing on a tree out in my backyard!

Transfer Pattern 10
Another beautiful crinoline lady with a crocheted skirt! Superior Transfers and Walkers Transfers are a little more elusive than Vogart or Aunt Martha's so I was thrilled to find a bunch of them.
Transfer Pattern 11
I think out of all of my new transers, this one is my favorite. I love anything with fruit on it!
This is the coolest pattern! It has the patterns for working the fruit in applique as well as the patterns for doing simple outline embroidery.

An old Aunt Martha's design for a baby quilt. I don't have any babies in life but wouldn't one of these be cute on a towel, maybe crayon tinted for Easter?

Some Of My Transfers from Yesterday's Shopping
Sure wish I knew how to crochet! My mom said she would show me as I already know the basics but do I need the ability to do one more thing? Oh, but this is just so pretty!
Most of the transfers are complete but a few are cut. Which I don't mind at all! I'm happy to have them. These old transfer patterns are one of my weaknesses!
