I found this table cloth for $1, which I brought home and...
turned into this bag. To me this just screams groceries and farmer's market. I think there's enough left to make a couple more bags. There's a good chance one of these could end up in the give-away box.
Then I found these buttons. I paid entirely too much for them, but maybe that was just the mood I was in today.
How about a box of snazzy American Needlework patterns for 2 bucks? A complete set I might add.
I also picked up a shuttle and bobbin for a treadle machine for, get ready it's just crazy, a nickle. Yes! Five whole cents. They had no idea what it was and when I told them they tried to raise the price. Nice try, but no dice.
*********
In give-away news, so far I've got 9 people and 4 cats signed up.
Oh, did you think I was joking about the cats?
Heavens no! I'm totally dead serious. Heck, let's throw your dog's name in too. I'd hate to be accused of discriminating against fur babies.
If you've already signed up and have a dog or cat that didn't get included, well sign up again. If we're going to do this thing, we're going to have fun at it.
Have a great one.
