What a find




Check out the lace! While out with Mr GREAT yesterday we stopped and had a browse through some antique shops - lots of very nice stuff in those.

In the last one we went to which has kind of retro/antique and perhaps not as flashy as the other two we visited I found this lace sitting on top of an old singer sewing machine (yes I would have liked to bring that home but alsa no space for extra furniture and no $$$$).

The lace was unpriced so I enquired as to the cost and the lady said $5. Well what a bargain - has the tag still on it that says made in Austria and its 10 yards long!!!! I will have to find something special to do with it.
