Flea Market Finds #1 2012


Hello there AGAIN!!!
 
I seem to be on a blogging hat-trick!!
 
I seen Flea Market Finds in my blog roll there, I was a avid poster on this front... I think it's time I got back on to it! Today is not so much quantity but more quality, I am forever on the hunt for vintage fabric. Yesterday on my wander, I found a stall that was full of handmade loveliness... & lovely little parcels of vintage pillow slips! I tried not to get to excited, but I could see the stall lady had a look of "yes I know aren't they fab"  AAAHHhhh the look of kindred spirits in the craft world... You may not know the person but know you could talk forever about crafty goodness!


Anyways on to the pillow slips....

The pictures don't do them any favours...

It's a little over cast.... The white pillow slip is so white, even in it's vintage stage! This is gonna go in to the box for a lovely vintage quilt, it will live on my rocking chair!
