I love collecting!
I love collecting! I love the adventure of hunting and finding new objects. I'm lucky that my husband is a collector too, but the downfall is we have A LOT of stuff between us. Right now I'm collecting vintage needlebooks. They are functional but so silly at the same time. Here are a few of my favorites.
I love the image of women sitting around sewing together. They look so happy and excited to be stitching.
I found the red scissor needlebook in St. Paul. I love that you got a free needlebook with your scissors. They should do that promo again ;)The Singer is from my mother-in-law. There are some scary needles in that thing.
I usually don't collect a lot of the same image but I have 3 of these-maybe cause they are so cute but more than likely it's because I forgot I had 2 other ones.
I LOVE the girl on this one. She is so pretty. What a wonderful gift for "my darling"-a needlebook!
This one is also one of my favorites. It's a souvenir postcard. I really wish they would bring these back. You could hem your pants and have fond memories of your vacation
Once again, very happy women sewing. I know when I'm stitching something up, I'm equally as happy (well, most of the time).
What about you? What do you collect?
love all of these old needle books..I collect CRAP! Come see it all..lol
