An Outing...part 2

Before I continue with the outing, I wanted to show you the giveaway I won from My Yellow Farmhouse. Wasn't I lucky? If you're interested in any of these wonderful items, you can find them on Karen's online store, Farmhouse Woolens. Thanks Karen...I love everything!

Little bunny guy found a home!

If you remember, I blogged about this Antique Mall back in November. It's always fun to head back to Redmond to see what's new there. Warning...this post has lots of pictures. I'll try to keep my comments to a minimum but I'm not guaranteeing anything! LOL


The porch always has some fun wood primitive goodies on it.

Lots of kitchen-y things.

This is always my favorite booth. Wooden bowls, braided rugs, tableware shaker boxes, yelloware and on and on...



Another booth had a whole cabinet of old tins.

CrossStitch and applique combination.

Campbell's soup kids.
Click on the picture to enlarge.... It's in SPANISH! That cracked us up!

The red/white room. I think Monica would probably move into it.


I love old milk jars.

Hey, Anne, check out all the chocolate rabbit molds. Although, you probably have them already!



Hmmm...I don't really consider these gals to be antiques, because if THEY are, then what am I? Oh Yikes!
And, you wanted to see what I bought? ROFL! Just kidding!

Shopping in PJ's

And I don't mean on the internet!

Yesterday The Stitchin Post , home of the Sister's Outdoor Quilt Show, had their annual Pajama Sale. The earlier you get there, the bigger the discount, and if you are wearing your PJ's, you get an extra 5% off.


Obviously, lots of people thought it was worth their while to wear theirs.

Here are Valori and Jean, owners of the shop. Such good sports to let me take their picture. They had both been there since before 6am. Ouch!

And here's my loot. The red floral in the upper left is what I'm going to use to make a tent for Emma for Christmas. Wish me luck!
Since I was up and out of the house so early, I thought I should go to the Fairgrounds to a Christmas Boutique.
Saw lots of signs...

Snowmen...

Santas...and
Angels. Did I buy anything? Hmmmm, it's a secret!
Then, since I was at the fairgrounds and close to my favorite antique mall, I decided to head on over there.
It's in an old railroad station.
The "porch" is usually filled with fun things. Not so much yesterday. Did I buy anything? Well, funny you should ask. While I was at Market, a little gift bag appeared out of no where in the booth. I thought I might have an inkling of who it was from, and since I'm not the type to wait to open something, I tore into it. Look what was in it. These darling little pillows from Karen. I had mentioned to her that she needs to write a pattern for them and I'd be the first in line to buy it. Well, she made me some. Isn't that just the sweetest thing? I'm still after her to make up patterns to sell on her wonderful website, Farm House Woolens. I think I may have convinced her. Yea! (get back in the sewing cave, Karen) :)

Since I didn't have anything cute to put them in, I bought this Amish scoop at the antique mall.
And here's how they look. Cute huh? Thanks Karen!
And here's my latest obsession. I'm going in circles! Any suggestions on what I should do with them?
