Tuesday is usually my day to go thrifting as I have a shorter day at the preschool. I love going in the early afternoon since my favorite thrift store is not as crowded then. Today was an exceptional day for all things needlework related. I found this vibrant beauty to add to my collection.
I do love all the french knots.
I also came home with a floss box full of embroidery thread (wrapped around homemade cards), a batch of DMC pearl cotton thread, vintage crewel wool and two huge bags of a new to me floss called Retors a Broder...a lovely super soft cotton thread.
I immediately fell in love with this new embroidery thread and all the lovely colors so...inspired by yesterday's mosaic, I pulled out a few colors to play with.
