vintage

 This week three quilting friends and I headed an hour south to a shop called The White House.
 It was in a white house and half of the fun was just walking around 
such a quaint, beautiful old home.
I was interested in the abundant vintage linen, all in beautiful condition.
And my quilting friends were, of course, interested in the quilting fabric.
I was glad I stopped in the little restroom tucked under the stairs.
What a great idea to use a vintage tablecloth for a shower curtain!
Got my creative juices stirring for my next project ... fixing up another bathroom.

Connecting to Mary's Little Red House for monday mosaics.
