Ok, today was such fun. Strolling with good friends, looking at beautiful quilts and shopping the vintage goodies vendors....
I have to say,,,,Heather, Rene' & I spotted a sweet but very fragile yoyo quilt...knowing what they cost at antique stores we didn't bother to look at the price tag...but not Julia,,,,she braved the peek and discovered it was only $35....SCORE!!!! Julia now has a New-Old yoyo quilt of the most wonderful vintage fabric....
I guess it goes with out saying.."You Snooze,,,You Loose!"....
Julia, you scored big time!
I posted pic's of some of the quilts at the Buggy Barn Quilt show today. (katmom4)...

hey Melody,,,,
I just realized you live in Athens, TX. My hubby's Father & family are from there,,,most have passed on or moved on, but I think there are a few left in town.
I found the cute pink wash stand at a fun shop in Rockford WA., called "Hurd's Merchantile". The sink comes in pink, yellow & white..I suspect if you type in vintage retro wash basin in your search engin you might be able to find one. I want one, but I will have to dig a little deeper in tween the sofa cushions to find enough loose change to buy one! LOL!

I am still thinking about what a great day we all had, and the fun & friendship has not ened....

p.s., Julia, I swung by your house today, Doc said you would be back shortly, but I was a little "horsey" smelling, had fun playing with a neighbors mini pony & donkey.....sorry I missed you.
