Some things I've seen recently, worth noting.

Urban Renewals, yesterday:

Imagine keeping all your sewing notions on such a geographically correct likeness!
I was so amused by this I had to call my mom and tell her all about it. It wasn't until after I realized it wasn't for sewing thimbles, but decorative porcelain thimbles.
No offense to any Canadians in the audience.

Also at UR:

Oh, the Skotch Kooler. We'll still be seeing these fifty years from now, along with the Divine Secrets of the Ya-Ya Sisterhood, Old Navy Holiday tee shirts, Holly Hobbie (did you know Holly Hobbie was a real person?*)bed sheets, and Mardi Gras beads.

Cambridge Goodwill, today:

I nearly died from the utter cuteness of this knitting bag. It still contained some acrylic yarn and a half finished project.

Somerville Goodwill, last week:

Forty kinds of scat! If only I knew someone interested in elimination identification.
The background fabric is from a pair of curtains, now hanging in my (very small) living room.


If my sister gave this to me, I wouldn't know what to say.




A Last Supper paint by number accented with glitter? Mere words can't express the emotions I had for this.
