I found some great stuff last week at our local thrift shops! We were awaiting a big snow storm, and apparently that scared most of the shoppers off--I practically had the stores to myself. That was awesome!
I bought some material--some felt that I used for this upcoming Monday's project and the fake leather that I used to make Trevor's brass bags for the range (see previous post.) The coolest thing I found were some quilt blocks--I got them for $0.50 a piece.
Aren't they gorgeous?!? They are 12 1/2" squares. I haven't decided if I'm going to put them together in a quilt or make little toppers for coffee tables. My friend, Jane, thought that they would be great candle rugs. What do you all think?
I also found some more whimsy for my yard/garden.
I don't think I'm going to go to the thrift shops today. I have quite a bit of stuff for my projects, and I really need to clean my house. Between being sick and starting this blog, my poor abode has been a bit neglected. Time to spruce up the old girl.
I hope you have a super day, and take care of you!
