It has been ages since I posted photos of vintage linens here; in fact without looking back, I think the last time was when I inherited several boxes of linens from my friend Denise who died last year.
Since then I have been given some more, but even though I wash and press them within days of getting any, it can be months before I get around to photographing them! Here are some doilies that I was given recently:
There are more from the same lady, but I will post them in the next day or so - the crocheted and lace doilies. There are also tablecloths and teatowels, still to be photographed.
While on the subject of doilies, I have finally made a start on the doiley quilt for the Olivia Newton-John Centre. I bought the background fabric last week at The Quilt Shop, and cut it into blocks, then started pinning doilies on to the blocks ready to hand sew. I think it is going to be rather lovely!

So many and so pretty. Am envious.
Oh, my what lovelies you get to play with! These would be so beautiful in a quilt. I do hope you plan to make one for yourself as well.
