As usual I had my fluffy companion Ella right under my feet, the sun was shining through the trees and I was using some lovely cheap but cheerful coloured yarn.
And Saturday morning's garage sale haul was a doozie too. This time the biggest find was for my MIL Robyn. Robyn's just taken up smocking to add to her already amazing repertoire of skills. I found a Sally Stanley Smocking Machine for the bargain basement price of $10!! Considering they go on Ebay for over $100 I was pretty happy with that find!And I also picked up these curtains. Please tell me what you think. Got these for $3. They are vintage 50's - 60's and in okay condition. I'm just not convinced that the print is nice enough to be pretty without looking like a circus tent with wedding bouquets all over it?? What do you think?

Pretty pretty if you ask me. Love that colourful wool too.
I can HONESTLY say Gillian the curtains are gorgeous! They literally took my breath away! you lucky lucky girl I think they are a very special find! I hope to get to the op shop today with the one purpose to find some curtains to cut up, then I see yours! trust me, they are pretty
I think they're very pretty. It probably just depends on where you're going to put them. Hubby might not appreciate it if you hung them in the bedroom!
I LOVE the curtains!!!!
$3 is an amazing price for them too.
