Another Yard Sale Find !

We went to an Upholstery  shop that was going out of business, this is just some of the threads I picked up,I know the bobbins will not fit my machines but I can still use the thread for top stitching, embroidery work and maybe machine sewing .  
The tapestries was very few but I did pick up the sample book and the one cloth and a leathery look fabric.
I want to use all these tapestries for crazy quilting, I can just see the beads, embroidery work, buttons, ribbon and charms on them! I just love this one !

There are 30 sheets and all colors and designs ,I will probably use all of these in one quilt .I went back to get more threads but another lady beat me to it !! Ahhh!!!!

Yard Sale Find !

Remember these highchairs where there are steps that fold up under the seat .
I remember Grandma Schoonover having one.... us kids loved it .
I found it at a yard sale last weekend ,they were asking $15. for it I got it for $10.     
This tall book case was only $2.00! 
The butterflies $1.00 each.

I will be cleaning up the chair and repainting it ,maybe cover the seat with cloth.,I want it to look vintage and I will show it again when it is done.
The book case I need in my room for more books and etc, sewing stuff of course !
The butterflies I plan to repaint like the ones I did for my friend Tracey and then hang them out front with my flowers .
