Posted a lot of pictures. Thought today was a good weather day to get to the thrift etc. Been a while since I have been there. Found some cute things.
Boy did you know rit dye is getting hard to find? Well it was for me. But I found some and dyed a tablecloth this moring, came out really nice. Now I feel like dying lots of stuff. Please make me stop.

Nancy I must say that I love buying and using rit dye - no matter the color - when it is on clearance. You just never know when you might need.  I have enjoyed looking at your blog. |

Very nice Nancy Jo! I especially liked the little butterfly pillows. If you do tea stain them, I'd love to see how they turn out. :O)

Love all the photos and goodies. I have read all of Pilcher's books, I thought, but not that one. Is it a collection of short stories? I usally don't read those. Let us know how you like it!
Someday, you need to take a picture of the front or inside of this famous thrift store! We need to see the scene of the crime! :)

Oh yeah...Shirley Jean....GREAT idea!!!! How about it Nancy Jo? I love all your treasures and where do you get your embroidery patterns or are they kits? I loved the squirrel you did for me...SO CUTE! Is the tablecloth in the picture with your butterfly pillows the tablecloth you dyed? It looks pretty if it is and it looks pretty if it isn't too.

Yes sam thats the tablecloth I dyed. I really like it. I will post a better picture of that tomorrow. Most of my embroideries are transfers. Once in a while I order one from a cross stitch catolog. They have ones that are copies from some very old ones. I like those a lot. They would probably think I was crazy taking pictures while in the thrift. Is that legal? Not them thinking me crazy, but taking pictures.

Those little pillows are so cute. You did good. If it weren't raining buckets here, I would have gone out.
