thanks for the bargains opshop fella. i couldn’t carry home the piece of furniture i liked, and really i don’t have the time at the moment to sand, paint and pretty it up, but i can still dream…. instead i picked up 4 single cotton sheets and a blanket….ooh, and a hot pink apron
and I KNOW they aren’t ironed….we already discussed this aye?
i’m thinking i might use the pink sheets for a quilt or spread for nearlyMabels bed, i’ve even found a wee tutorial for this vintage sheet quilt
from Anne at Pins&Thimbles.
Of course, i’ve never made a quilt before, and i was really thinking something even simpler than this, with no peicing like the back of a quilt, but then, is that a quilt?
Maybe the blue ones could be shopping totes, like these ones
in the tutorial on craftstylish, they, my friend, are chooooice
