Sweet Sewing Basket...

I found this lovely sewing basket from a local Op Shop a few weeks back for the low price of $2.00...

Inside its a cute green silk.....

My sister has a similar one that I admired while growing up, it only took me to the age of 33 to get one for myself! I guess better late than never!!

Now I just need to fill it with some sewing goodies....

Vintage Brooch.....

I found this georgous Purple Vintage Brooch at a new store in Ballarat. Mr S's former work colleague has opened a store in Sturt St Ballarat, next to G.C.s.... Its called Vintage Blonde and there are some great items for sale!

We called in to say hello and I saw this Brooch and it was only $8.00. Right in my price range...

Yes some husbands can sew....

I found some black work pants at the Op Shop in Ballarat for $5.00. They fit really well except for the length..

I suffer from lack of height, hence all pants I buy are too long...

Finally tonight I set up my sewing machine after we jimmied the cabinet open?! Seems we lost the key in the move...

Mr S did a sewing course for automotive upholestry a few years back! He quickly got in the seat to adjust and re-hem my work pants....

Yes some husbands are extra handy!!!
