A few weeks ago I pulled a bit of secret squirrel power from within and sent Cam and Liz some of my great-nana's lino. I was super happy that they adored the goodies I posted... but imagine my face as I opened a mini surprise package to find this owl brooch - made from the very lino I gave Liz! In particular I adore the glossy beak :)
Vintage sheets from Ange's sheet swap, in an array of pastally goodness has made me completely motivated to get a start on a new quilt. Thank you Ange - you deserve a high 5! You should pop over and see the plethora of vintage sheets on her floor ready to be swapped and posted - I still cannot comprehend how she managed not to return the same sheets to swappers? impressive.
How divine are those sheets!
ReplyDeleteI so should have got my bum into gear and sent some.
I am very excited to see all the gorgeous quilts popping up now.
love that owl (and nice that great-nana's lino should get reused so beautifully!).
ReplyDeleteAm working hard to manage my vintage sheet envy at the moment - looks like fun!
How sweet that now you can actually wear your nana's lino!
ReplyDeleteLove that owl brooch and your much more impressive photos of your "bunch" of swapped sheet FQ's! Can't wait to see what you make of them.
