Vintage linens found at antique bazaar.

Today I visited the Waverly Antique Bazaar, and found some lovely linens at very reasonable prices. I've posted more about the bazaar on my other blog, but the linens are here:
Tray cloth. Nothing startling about the stitching, but the design is cute, and one that I didn't have in my collection.


Kingfisher beautifully stitched on this doiley.


Sandwich tray doiley featuring a penguin - another first for me! I don't have anything else with embroidered penguins.


Suppercloth - $3! Lovely stitching, but with a small hole, which I can easily fix.

I try not to buy too many teatowels, but I love the designs on some of them, and figure I can always cut them up and use them in a future patchwork project. There are some gorgeous chook towels like this; they would make a cute display all sewn together.
