While Thrift shopping a few weeks ago...
I came across this darling wee tablecloth...
It has all sorts of different flowers....
Each one...
Embroidered and named...
Such detail...
And a blanket stitch all around...
In 2 tones of blue...no less!!!
Thought you might like to see it...
Enjoy......
had 2 long walks....and had a few beers and some grouper
chowder down the road...delish..:o)
Here is another picture of my sweetie that I took before we left...
Tonight is Downton Abbey night...
Think I'll do my nails...and some more crocheting...nearly done :o)
Hope you all had a great day...
Warming up tomorrow for you in Southern Ontario...
Watch out for the puddles!!!!
Enjoy your evening...
Cheers! :o)

I think I made one of those tablecloths and I still have it somewhere...
ReplyDeleteThose were my embroidery days.
Oh boy I bet you're missing Vivian....
Yes I sure am...go and find that tablecloth!!!
DeleteI can't believe the things people give up to thrift stores. Somebody obviously spent hours and hours on that beautiful tablecloth and someone just tossed it. A real treasure for you, though!
ReplyDeleteI like to give things new homes...MINE!
DeleteI love that sweet tablecloth! It would have jumped in my cart for sure! haha!
ReplyDeleteYes...and it was a mere $3!!!
DeleteIt is on my kitchen table at home right now!!!
OMG! I've just finished an embroidery project, so I can truly appreciate the work in this cloth. How wonderful that you now own and love it. It gives it a new life and a new loving home. Bravo!
ReplyDeleteThank you [me...taking a bow]...
DeleteWow, what an awesome find in that table cloth! A real treasure. I know you will use it a lot at the cottage this summer!!!!
ReplyDeleteCutie pie pic of the baby!!!

Lovely little table cloth for your home, the patience that must have taken!
ReplyDeleteAre there any thrift shops in the area you are visiting? I often Google to see if there are any on my travels, just a thought!
Pleased you are enjoying the beach walks and super food.

ReplyDeleteOnly 1 more episode of Downton Abbey to go ... surprise/shock ending coming up.
Rain today so goodbye to some snow.
Thought last nights episode was kind of weak...just sayin'...

Nice delicate embroidery...I have a few of those myself. There is a huge fleamarket in Ft. Meyers - you probably have been to. Great for having a little look and putting in some nice relaxing time. Check it out. Rainy/slushy - here we go into another chapter of winter. Enjoy the lovely weather!! What are you doing for your birthday? HAPPY BIRTHDAY LINDA!!!!
