Linen (maybe blended with cotton) tablecloth from 12th Ave. SA. Where's my iron?

last week's finds

Yarn from the SPCA on Victoria Dr. except for the cream, yellow and grey ball on the platter. Unusual colour combo.

tote and quilt

Rocketship crib quilt; a little threadbare around the edges. Skunk game with shrunk tote. Shepherd Classic Wool.

Fun and fast as the links are addictive to knit.





Found last week while thrifting.





The pattern is on whipup.net; Dec. 6/07. I would add short rows to the wrist portion to make them looser.

Russel Wright dishes from various thrift shops.

embroidery image

An image on a tea towel, maybe from the 40's. Looks like a container of knitting needles behind her skirt.

grommet

From a neighbourhood yard sale a few years ago. Sarah (took one of my lunch hour knitting classes) only wanted 25¢ for Grommet, so I gave her a couple of my finger puppets.

colour chart

Sample noses for plush animals. In other words, "stuffy noses!"

guess

Can you guess what these are?

rescued animals

Unwanted by others.

Flair dishes

Most of the pieces were found at a Sally Ann in the early 80's. We don't use them anymore.

Found at various times. Donald Duck was a Value Village find.








Searching for more vases to photograph, I notice I'm missing two.

Redwing found at the Sally Ann in North Vancouver for $10; bonus plastic flowers.









McCoy found at Union Gospel Mission for $3. When not holding flowers, it stores plastic vegetable bags.
