Odds and Ends

A little bit of this... painting for a customer and A little bit of that... work on the string quilt AFTER I managed to clean the sewing room  and make room  to  work again. Straightening the attic  and creating a space to  price items  for the  Open House.  It will be here before I know it.  And.. I found some t-shirts that made Some fun t-shirt yarn.  Last of all, work on all these "treasures" that I found at the flea market on Sunday!  Nothing  earth-shattering, just bits and pieces of  daily projects. 

Guessing Game

  Remember playing those games at showers that they showed you the tray for minutes and you had to remember what was on it?   I bought a Styrofoam cooler full of all this stuff at the auction the other night. Sometimes, curiosity   just gets the best of me. Don't worry, the price was not high and there are possibilities there believe it or not.   Anyone else see any treasures?

Treasures

A found treasure in my MIL's garage. And while delivering today I ran into a new antique shop and found this little case. It jumped right off the shelf at me. Figuratively, not literally. No price tag, the owner of the shop said "Five Dollars." And I jumped then. And inside... more treasures. A miniature croquet set, how cute! And an old set of crayons. The newspaper inside the case was dated 1950. But the BEST treasure... is yet to come. Kendall is getting a baby brother or sister! Yes, that will be Treasure #7 in our lives! Doesn't Papa look happy? Don't let that look fool you. He is a nervous wreck when they are around! I, on the other hand.. can't wait!  I mean, after all, it has been over a year since we have had a new baby!
