Every year I make the trek to a small town where a huge rummage sale is held at the fairgrounds. The barns are bursting with everything from dishes and knick knacks to tools and applicances. I spend most of my time (and money) in the linen barn, going through enourmous bins of napkins and tablecloths, embroidered dishtowels and crocheted potholders. All of the proceeds benefit a small nearby hospital.
Here are a few of my treasures from yesterday.
This kind of counts as photo Friday, too, doesn't it? I displayed them with a lace tablecloth and took a few shots, but then when I simply sat them aside and later the sun came through the back door to my kitchen table, this was what I got.

It's amazing what you can find if you keep your eyes open, isn't it? Sadly, I haven't had the chance to go to fleamarkets for a while, but I've been able to get some stuff by swapping and get rid of stuff I don't need, like Barbie clothes and other Barbie stuff I have made. I obviously don't need any of that stuff, but I got tired of making socks and mittens.
