HWY 127 Yd Sale in Ohio: Bag 2

    On a recent post entitled:

HWY 127 Yd Sale in Ohio: Bag 1 

I started showing you what came in a 2$ bag.

The ziplock bag had some jewels. 

Take a look.

 

**************

Crochet pot holders.

Not something that was made overnight.

Double ply.

Small stitches using cotton yarn.

Whipped stitched around the edge AND top stitched by machine.

The blue potholder had a scalloped blanket stitch around the edge.

Notice the double yarn used in the tiny stitches which made for a thick, sturdy potholder.

These potholders had been used, but had no stains.

Lines were perfectly matched.

Notice the color change.

I am using these in my kitchen.

I need to find a use for old aprons. Love the attention to detail in lace and hand embroidery.

I first thought this lace might have been crochet, but I don't think so.

From the machine stitching, I believe it was homemade.

Even though the apron seemed to be well worn & laundered many times, the blue stamping is still there.

I first thought I had a couple of pieces of feed sack cloth, but instead there was roughly 7 yards of vintage fabric.  What should I make from it?

Did I get my money's worth?
