Rusty


Hello all,


I went to Lewes last Friday and I found this bright 'Rust' vintage fabric, it still bears the original tag of february 67'!

The price at the time was 5 shillings which is probably about 50p now.

It's never been used and the color hasn't faded away, absolutely gorgeous!

Busy Bee

Dear all,

I have been very busy those last few days: I have posted most of my purses on my Folsky shop.
I have taken new pictures, retouched them...without mentioning Paint Shop Pro Program crashing a few times...
More are to be listed, you can have a look at: www.folsky.com/shops/minxybags

Enjoy the sun!

Sorry...

Dear all,

Sorry about the previous post but as you might have noticed, the "be" in the title is missing...I should have written Cannot BE more vintage than this...oups.

I wanted to add as well that the reel is in wood and the thread has never been used.
I don't know how long my grandmother had this thread but probably quite some time!
Speak to you soon,
Cécile

Cannot more Vintage than this!



Hello all,




I hope you all enjoyed your long weekend!




Last month, I went back home for a week, I visited my grandparents and my grandmother who used to be a fine seamstress, gave me some sewing threads,




These are genuine French Vintage threads, you can see on the sticker the price in French francs:
