Finished Quilt

Got this finished and I LOVE IT, looks vintage, and comfy too. Not quilted to death, I personally don't like quilts when they are so quilted that they feel "Stiff" I like the soft snuggly feeling better. And this one definately fits that bill.

SOME PROGRESS AND SOME QUESTIONS

I am working on a Vintage Linen 9 Patch quilt, I am looking for some advice, To Sash or Not To Sash, that is the question. Here are some pics without any sashing, I just laid some blocks down in no particular order so don't pay any attention to that part, just what you think of the no sashing look. TOO BUSY or VINTAGE??????

Any opinions or ideas?

FINALLY~~~~~~~~FLOSS

Here is the floss I got today to start my Wool Crazy Blocks, I have some crewel wool that I plan on intermingleing with this floss, I am still looking for some perle cotton to co ordinate too. I am getting impatient and want to get started but I want all my thread before I start. I said to someone today "Why can't I find what I want" and she said "Why can't you want what you find?" Great concept I guess.

Vintage Thursday Thingie

Iboght this plate for $1.50 at a flea market a couple of years ago and I LOVE IT. I don't think it is anything special but I fell in love with it as soon as I saw it, I haven't ever seen another one like it either. Fits right in my homey vintage kitchen. :)

Thursday Vintage Thingie

Long Time NO SEE, sorry to have disappeared but we have had some health issues for the past 8 months. Things seem to be going good now so I am back online. No pics for this, check my Valentines Day post, that is my Vintage Thingie, I found it at the local thrift shop and just couldn't pass it up. I THINK IT IS BRAND NEW AND WAS PUT AWAY WITHOUT EVER BEING USED. :) I AM THRILLED WITH IT. As you can see, so is our cat. We had a little fight over who really owns the afghan, guess who won?????

IT IS GREAT TO BE BACK, can't wait to check out everyone's treasures this week.

Thrift Shopping

WOW, what a find. I LOVE Granny Square Afghans and this one is BEAUTIFUL!!!!!!!! not stretched out or mis shapen, colors are awesome and I fell in LOVE WITH IT. Got it today at the thrift store for $3.00. Couldn't pass it up. I went in looking for wool but came home with an afghan instead. :) And couldn't be happier with my find. As you can see our cat likes it too. And it is on a queen size bed. HUGE!!!!!!!!!!

Happy Valentines Day

Here are some Vintage Valentines, some of my favorites. Thought I would share them with you.

Enjoy your day whatever it is you have planned.
