It's Over ~



From Our Hand is but a pleasant memory.  So many wonderful treasure could be had.  Amazing vendors.  Here are a few of their booths.

Fellow hooker Kathy Bonnes of Homespun Antiques
 
Kelsey A Smith (Rebekah's talented daughter)

Debbie Hartwick ~ Heartwells
 
C Yenke Co


Christine Miller (Rebekah's mother)
Antiques and Folk Art
 
Guess who?


Lori Ann Corelis ~ The Spotted Hare
 
Stop by Lori's blog to see more of the vendors.  Her pictures came out so much better than mine. 

Once again I was too darn good!  There was a darling little sampler that I was considering, but Stacy Nash beat me to it.  She offered to let me buy it.  That was so sweet of her but I would not accept the offer.  My purchases were few, but I'm happy what came home with me.  Two pair of scissors and this wonderful little pincushion from Heartwells.  To give you an idea of its size, the smaller pair of scissors is just over 3 1/2" long.  The tiny strawberry emery that is attached is only 1/2" long.  I could never stitch anything that small. 

 
I could not resist this pair of scissors with the curved blades.  I love the detail on the handles. 


They are stamped STERLING.


This small tureen (?) minus the lid also came home with me.  It is Gaudy Welsh, circa 1870.  Not that I need to start another collection, but it does fit in beautifully with my feather edge.


Now that shows are over, I can think about hooking the three or four Christmas presents I'd like to give this year.  I did finish one snowman and even have it bound, but that's as far as I've gotten.  I need to get busy!

Thanks so much for stopping by.
Pug hugs :)

Oh, your pictures are perfect! Love, love, love those scissors. I keep an eye out for beautiful scissors. Not because I need another pair, but there is something about using a tool that has been touched by others to create art. Smile.
