Some things on the weekend.




On Saturday I headed out to the MTC garage sale, which was amazing. Unfortunately by the time I got there 11ish ( bloody trams) and waited in a long line, a lot of things had been bought, but neverless it was far beyond what I had imagined. Room after room of stuff. ( apparently when they opened at 9am 1500 people were waiting.) The amount of stuff, clothes, bags, fabric, furniture, shoes was incredible and any thrifters delight and the prices were below what I had expected. I managed to score 3 lovely nighties, a wool skirt, heaps of mens hankies, and an old green filing cabinet.
On Sunday we went to a family occasion to welcome a new baby into the world, my cousin Kate's third baby.
Do you remember another of my cousins had a baby very prematurely in May? Well he's doing great, he's been home for a couple of months now. And I was lucky enough to have a snuggle. It was nice to see all my Australian family again, after catching up with all the US side of family.
I also finished off a little rabbit and Scooter too.
I hope you had a nice weekend.

It looks awesome, I am glad you snaffled the green filing cabinets - super cool! I love men's hankies. So much more practical! Loving your work Jess. And how cute is that wee babe. Beautiful.

Nothing's more fun than a big garage sale or flea market. You can find the very best stuff there. I personally have! =) Congrats on your great finds.
