"I'll get you my little pretties!"

I went to a fantabulous estate sale recently....picked up some old old patterns and buttons and stuff....I was in heaven.  She had stacks and stacks....did I say "Stacks"....of old fabric that I wished I would have looked over...but at the time I was interested in the notions.  Anyway, I found a box of old spools of thread....as you can see, they are so pretty.  I was going to sell them on my Etsy shop, but decided I can't part with them.  At least half of them are 100% pure silk...so nice.  Plus, with my alterations business, I won't have to run out to the store so often to find that weird color......

ah, why didn't I go through the fabric.  What I did see was really kinda old and musty.  She was a seamtress who worked at Singer Company....she was in her 90s....I wish I could have met her....
