Estate Sale killings
My Friday estate sale excapades continue to reap great rewards! This week it was tatting and crochet threads, scraps of yarn good for embellishing, and a lovely cross-stitched cluctch purse that i get to finish for the nice lady who left it for me (another needlepoint rescue). They sold it to me for a criminal price - $1.50. Shame on them - they obviously don't know the work involved in these works of art. I am thrilled to have it though. .

OH MY, talk about a gold mine you are right!!! Connie you will have lots to experiment with for tatting!
Wow! What a haul!!! Have fun playing with all your wonderful goodies!
Connie, you could have a lot of fun with those white and off white threads with a little food coloring; variegating colors you can't find in shops is great fun. My daughter made a rainbow skein for me that I thought I'd never use, but I actually found a use for it almost immediately.
You always find the best estate sales!!!!!!
You're so lucky to find these kind of wonderful goodies. Enjoy!!!
By the way, your cat is so lovely:)
