Preparing to Love and Rummage


Did you know that I have precisely twenty-seven vintage aprons? What is that? A flock? A pride? A.....parliament of aprons? (Oh yes, definitely the last one ;-)


These ladies are taking over, so I will accompany some of them to the Love & Rummage Trunk Show in a week so that they can find new homes. Also finding new homes will be packages of fat quarters,


some of my usual wares, and a small project that I've been working on......


hee hee! Please come by and spread the love!

And in that spirit, of the money that changes hands between us that day, I will donate 10% to help make the weekly community lunch in our neighbourhood (the P.L.O.T. lunch coordinated by Shoelace Collective) a little more sweet for Valentine's.

See you next Sunday!

Oh, I love vintage aprons! I have maybe 8 of them and I thought that was a lot...Once I passed up a bunch of them for .25 each in an Iowa thrift store. I'm still kicking myself over that now that they've gotten so popular and expensive.

there is something about vintage aprons, eh? and they were well received at the show, along with some other stuff, so Safiya got to put flowers and chocolate hearts on the tables at lunch :-)

Vanessa, so happy you like the capes, and that goes for you too, Mama!

Lisa, I cannot believe you passed that up!

And Rachel, what a neat image - now when i look at the picture i expect them to kick up their heels! ;-)
