I had a wonderful day in LaPorte, Indiana ... The Stash Sale was awesome. For those who attended, there were great finds!!
CiCi was parting with some of her incredible books. This one was $2.00. Some of the motifs inside knock my socks off!
And, just when I thought I'd wear blinders for the entire day, I came accross this design from the sampler collection of The Frances Lehman Loeb Art Center:
Per the pattern:
"This design is an adaptation of a motif found on a seventeenth century English band sampler in the collection of Vassar College." I thought it was so pretty & was delighted GF Ruth Ann was paring down her stash!
I found a nice book with doll patterns -- and, a wonderful doll kit at Sue's table -- and she was mighty generous handing me a giant shopping bag of
LACE. Thank you so much! More about those items

Once they knew they were spotted, they ran off quickly (photos by Alex)
These are a few pendants that use beading cords. Each of the necklaces have a different cord - cut on the end & knotted. Elastic cord is about $1.00 for 90". The one at the bottom of the picture is on silk cord. Click on the photo to enlarge. These cords are available at craft stores & bead stores. ie., Michael's, JoAnn Fabrics, Hobby Lobby - to name a few.
These are silk cords I recently purchased (on sale) from Hobby Lobby. They are 2 yards / 1.82 m regular price $3.99 -- on sale for $1.43. There are a variety of colors to choose from. IMO - inexpensive.
