I was in an antique shop along the Erie Canal & found a little flower linen.
It was crinkled up and browned...
There was a 2nd one!!!!
(My little prayer was for just one more... just one more!)
As I searched the entire booth, under every blanket~
Between every table cloth and linen!
There were five!
With arms filled with various vintage treasures,
my heart skipped a beat over these!
After their gentle soak in mild laundry detergent & a dash of Oxy Clean
they were even more beautiful!
As I was pressing them the ideas were swirling in my mind!!
Should I draw top views of frogs on them (lily pads?)
Should I draw five different flowers with their botanical names?
Should I draw butterflies on them?
Should I pattern them?
Some of my favorite quotes & fuzzy bees kept coming to my heart!
These are on their way home to Nevada!
A dear heart who LOVES BEES will give them the love they deserve~
Hope your September has been off to a great start!
Don't you just love when that happens. Love them lucky bee lover
ReplyDeleteMichelle, are these little nuggets for sale? I can see myself making a table cloth quilt of them for my daughter who is knee deep now into bee keeping. Please let me know. Thank you.....these are just lovely.
