Each year, I drive up to my parents' town for their annual citywide rummage sale. I go with my sister and assorted nieces and/or nephews, and it's a lot of fun. Here's some of the things I found this year.
A cat Halloween decoration
A Halloween stamp set with a kitty witch.
Sacks of yarn (to crochet cat beds for the local shelter)
A Christmas cat book
Old rick rack. I love the packaging on the older ones.
A Kliban nightshire--new! It is printed front and back.
My favorite find of the weekend was this sock darning egg. It used to have a handle, and was used to help in mending the toe area of old socks. I found it at the house of a late 91 year old lady. I love the patina on it. I have my great-grandmother's sewing basket, and it will reside in there.
I hope you enjoyed seeing my finds.

Love the cat witch and the frog on the cauldron stamps.
ReplyDeleteI actually have that book, as Jo Beverley is one of my 'must buy' authors.
Enjoy!
I like the darning tool. Hope you have room for all these things you bring home!
ReplyDeleteMy human has a Halloween cat like that, only in black.

ReplyDeleteGreat finds and bargains. Loved the Kliban kitty in a hula skirt and it says "Hawaii." Purrfect. Wear it proudly.
