Cotton 90's Whites
Some of my Collection
patterns I would like to make, but I didn't
make any of these. They are part of a collection
I have had going since the late 1980s and 1990s.
make any of these. They are part of a collection
I have had going since the late 1980s and 1990s.
At first glance, this is a towel with a beautiful heart on it..
What a surprise to me when after years of ironing it many times....
Oh....look! GEESE!
A gorgeous Handkerchief I have LOVED since I found it in the early 1990s.
A handkerchief given me by a dear friend whom I worked with in
a church Children's organization.
For the last few months they have been adorning the hand towel bar in my bathroom,
along with my hand towel. They remind me of a time when I was having
my babies and decorating the home we lived in, as well as planning
to decorate the home we built in the mid 90's.
Our Master bedroom and bathrooms are creams, whites and off whites.
These are not vintage, but they carry with them fond memories of times
well loved and spent with family. They have decorated the master bath,
the guest room, the guest bath, the quiet room. The handkerchiefs
have accompanied me to many special occasions,
including the weddings of our two elder daughters.
And memories tug at my Heartstrings....

Thank you, Becky, at Timewashed!
Isn't it funny how our brains work, I didn't see the geese until you shouted Geese! I only saw a heart. Your linens are beautiful, they look gorgeous displayed on the towel rail.
ReplyDeleteOh, good.....
DeleteI am not the only one seeing hearts everywhere!
Hugs,

These are very lovely pieces. Like Liz, I didn't see the geese at first, lol.

Julia,
DeleteYou two are "THE lace experts", in my opinion! So I guess it's okay that I didn't see it for a few dozen ironings!
Hearts,
Betsy
Oh these cut lace whites are so gorgeous and Oh1 yes I did see the geese only when you shouted it out! So beautiful!
ReplyDeleteHeartstrings to you - this is how we connect!

Suzy,
ReplyDeleteWhat I find so funny is now that I saw the geese, It's harder for me to see the heart clearly.....I LOVE hearts, as you see, but Now I am just a silly goose!...pun intended...I know, it wasn't really funny....
Heart hugs,
Betsy
Your lace is so pretty ! I would love to make a cushion with the lace doily. Can we do it in a few more weeks though as I have a wedding to prepare for and I am going to be focussed on that for the next 3 weeks or so. It is the first wedding that I have done flowers for and it needs lots of attention.

Melanie,
DeleteLet me know when you want to start your cushion and I will start mine. Have fun with the wedding flowers, I wish I could help you, I LOVE doing wedding florals.
hugs to you,
Betsy
What a beautiful collection. What exquisite work and detail. I have started a collection of my own. I find linen so crisp and clean. It is timeless. I am also your newest follower..
ReplyDeleteTake a peak at mine when you get the chance.
