Big bag of fabric and pyrex
Got this big 15 pound bag of fabric at Goodwill. It was $7.99 but had some nice fabric, so worth it to me.

These are the ones I didn't want. A lot of ugly knits.
Next three pictures are some of the keepers.


Finally found a pyrex loaf dish, not that I was looking for a loaf dish, but I'll take it for $1.99.
A cute skirt vintage skirt pattern I hope I can wear.

New look
Hope you like my new look. Wanted to make my blog more interesting. I'll still put my beautiful grandchildren's pictures on my blog. I know you want to see them.
I've got many new things I've thrifted. A great half off sale on one of my favorite booths at the Harpeth Antique Mall.
I will be putting those pictures on tonight or tomorrow morning. The grandkids will be over tonight, so I may not have time for that.
Have a great weekend.

More sheets and pillowcases. I love the ruffled one. Perfect for a dress or gown.
Can't believe I found these embroidered pillowcases at Goodwill for $.99
Apron was made from the thrifted duster here.

Sheet gowns (revisited)
I'm addicted to making these gowns. They are so easy to make and look beautiful.
Made this one for me from a thrifted sheet. My favorite so far.




This one is for my daughter Lori also from a sheet she thrifted. It runs in the family.

Got this lace from my Mom. She used some of this on my clothes when I was a kid.
Thanks for stopping by and seeing the things I made. This is what I love to do.

Goodwill finds for Tuesday
Adorable clothes for $.50 each.
Ralph Lauren lined shower curtain that looks like a quilt. It is so pretty I couldn't pass it up.
This is a duster, I thought about using for an apron.

7 yards of dotted swiss fabric. Last time I saw any of this was 1984. I'm thinking Christmas dresses.
My thrifted sheets. This is a twin, the pink is a king size.

Goodwill finds
More Thrifting
These came from another antique store I found today at lunch. I won't be going as much when I quit work.
These vintage curtains were cheap. They had some damage. Thinking about aprons.
This one's kind of holey,but I got it cheap and I think I can put it to use. I need ideas.
This beautiful dresser scarf will go to Layla and Ruby's room.
A pillowcase for another dress for Layla or Ruby or both.

Been thrifting at Goodwill and Antique Mall. Found a gingham apron with "chicken scratch", 3 embroidered scarfs and a cute rooster (collecting). Found 6 tea cups at Goodwill without the saucers.
Tried putting pictures on here, but it wouldn't work for me. Maybe tomorrow.
