The best laid plans

You know that old saying, "the best laid plans"? Well you know what usually seems to happen when you make plans for something to happen, and then something happens that makes it impossible to happen :-)

My trusty little Sony digital camera decided to take a little vacation today. Or should I say that the batteries decided to die............ So I can't take the pictures I was planning on until I can get to the super store and buy some refreshed AA's.

But I thought I would share with you some of my thrift store finds. Yea, it was a good week!

This tablecloth was in perfect condition. It is small, but perfect for an occasional table or even as a table topper. I could not believe it was only 79c.


I have also been on the look out for colorful vintage sheets. These prizes fit the ticket! And I fell in love with the pillowcase printed with a cross stitch pattern. It is actually a large body pillow size. These were all on sale for 1/2 price.

And how about this cute doll fabric?? I couldn't decide how I would use this, but there was no way it wasn't coming home with me :-)

I was so happy to find this! It is a great pressing tool, and on 1/2 price day it was only $1.50!!! Wooo-hooo

I hit the jackpot on this one. I have been collecting Aunt Martha patterns, but they are usually a couple of dollars. These were at the Hospice thrift store and were only 29c each!! Love, love, love all the vintage sewing notions.

There were several more items, but since the Sony is on vacation, they will have to wait. I'll let you know when the Sony gets back from its R&R.
