Last weeks op shop find.....



I had a very productive week last week but the best thing that happened was this gorgeous "find" at Vinnies down in Wang.  I was obviously meant to call in that day for a wee "scrounge" as here was this pile of beautiful colourful vintage floral sheets just waiting for me!!!  Whoa hoo!   I have just finished washing, airing and folding these lovelies..............they have been hanging on my clothes horse for a few days just so I could admire them a bit longer!!!


What to do with these is the 64,000 dollar question????  A patchwork quilt cover???  A gorgeous  dress????  Who knows, but while I decide I will enjoy drooling over their beauty in the meantime!!

Cherio happy crafters,

Dee

  1. I cant believe that you found them all in one go - I am SO very very envious!!
    I think a quilt for sure ... and there is probably enough goodness there for a dress or skirt too.
    What a fantastic find!
