Flea market finds and shop news

I did find a few things at last weekend's flea market.

These will brighten up a dreary winter day!

Can you believe that someone could part with these mainly silk threads and other notions?

I had the jar already from another flea market, but the narrow velvet ribbons, red rick rack, blue and white trim, and red and white trim were all from this one. Lucky me!

This vintage Sanvika design fabric reflects Norway's countryside - just filled with wildflowers in the summer! 

It is anything but summerlike here but we still have a few frostbitten wildflowers!

 

My little flower enjoying the wonders of winter's first snow.

 

One does get sleepy after long days of thrifting and playing in the snow! Frøydis and Jannicke are sleeping peacefully and dreaming of new homes with someone to love them. I have just added Gift Certificates to my shop, which might be a nice way of giving someone the doll of their choice. Should you like one for an amount not listed please ask and I will make a custom certificate for you.

You always find such yummie things at the Flea markets! No snow here, it never snows in Marmaris but does in other parts of Turkey :) Your new dolls are beautiful!

I took your lead and showed off my finds from the Houston quilt fair on my blog. That was so much fun, and I came home with probably way to many items! I love your sleeping babies with the little bird. So sweet! -- Michele

I love those old-timey wooden spools. They just feel so real :) The new bird accents on the dolls are striking and beautiful. Good job!
