WX Treasures and Stitching Tonight

Today has just flown by for me....it's Monday afternoon and you know that means tonight is our stitching get together, but I do have a few minutes and I wanted to show you a couple of treasures I found at the peddlers fair yesterday. I said I was just going to buy tiny things and I did..... well,I guess I should say little items and just a small bag of goodies at that. I didn't even need my shopping cart....I collect......silhouettes and I just love these. This is the first time I've ever seen silhouettes in blue. Right now I've tucked them in amongst the moonstone......I think they look kind of pretty there.
Look at the sweet little lambs...perfect for Easter. I was going to put them away until next month but changed my mind. Just behind the lambs is a little blue fairy light....you can just barely see it....I'll get a better picture so you can see how pretty it looks with a candle in it.
Yikes, I've got to fly....we're stitching in a hour...hugs, Linda

Hi Linda, I can picture you stitching right now. The gal from a blog I visit had a booth at the WX yesterday. I wonder if you saw it. "Notes from a Cottage Industry". She posted some photos of the booth today.

Hi Linda! Your sillouettes and little lambies are darling! I may visit a few antique stores to see if I can't get some vintage easter stuff!
Thanks for visiting my blog and explaining what a SAL is, LOL! Do you belong to EGA? I love that group. Where I lived before the Embroiderer's Guild chapter invited me to be an honorary member because I tat. I thought it was so sweet of them. They were so nice to me! :)

We have something in common Linda as I collect silhouettes too. I have ended up making them and aging the paper. It was funny when a friend thought mine were the real ones and the other were the ones I made. I thought I must have done okay with them for her to think that. I have never heard of them being blue either. Those lambs are just sooooo adorable! What a sweet thing to use in the spring.

Hugs ~
