I don’t often get the chance to shop, let only op shop but with the eldest at daycare and Alfie quite content with goods from the bakery, I popped into the local oppy.
Given that I am all about cross stitch this week, imagine my absolute delight when I stumbled upon these two beauties.
Quite thrilled and am already planning their transormation.

Awesome find Kate, can't wait to see what you do with them. xo
I wonder what old lives these little beauties had?
Oh my goodness Kate, you are diversifying! Love your purchases.
that's gorgeous! Love your scissors cross stitch too!
Yes…a most excellent find. x
Lovely, I love cross stitch on linen :-)
What a find! Whatever you plan with this will be gorgeous. Your little scissors are too cute as well!
The blanket stitching on there is so delicately perfect! Wonder what you will do with them?!
great findings!
These vintage patterns are lovely!
kisses.

It's just one of those things… Once you jump in, you find it everywhere. Good luck with the new handcraft – I'm certain you'll have it completely mastered in no time. :-)
It's so wonderful to see the pieces that were made by a kindred soul, whom you've never met, being appreciated by you and brought into your world to continued life!
what a fortunate find !
they look as if they are in linen ?
