More Finds

The Tuesday Quilters are a generous group, making items for charity and sharing goodies. The gals bring in fabric, yarn, patterns, or magazines to give away almost weekly. Today we had linens and fabric. I brought home some great stuff!

I loved this embroidered 1930s lady on a heart shaped doily embellished with lace. I can see her on one of my wall hangings.


These pansies were embroidered on the four corners of a table cloth. There is staining on the cloth, but I can see several ways to use it.
This Redwork is so cute! 


"What does the birdie say/In its nest at peep of day"

These preprinted cheater cloth panels marked "Charlotte" by Denise Beavers of The Violet Patch would look amazing hand quilted for a charity quilt!

This silk 1939 new York World's Fair handkerchief is in mint condition!


I love the different national costumes so colorfully illustrated

I also brought home a piece of ribbon and this piece of pretty fabric.

I had better clear out my stash and share with the gals!
