Antique Quilt and Wedding Veils





I guess today was my lucky day. I had to go to the shop to pick up some stuff I wanted to take to the flea market this weekend (to sell). I stopped at a thrift store and found two really old, almost antique wedding veils. The first one is from the 1920's...I just watched a movie the other night and saw a wedding veil like this. Who knew a few days later I would find one? It's so beautiful. The next must be from the 1930's or 40's. This one has little millinery flowers on it. It's so pretty also! I went up to the shop and one dealer had this quilt for sale. His stuff is always so cheap and I find lots of treasures in his booth. This is going to the flea market this weekend too. This is all done by hand. Can you imagine? Lots of work!
I better get to it. I have so much to do to get ready for this sale. Lots of pricing and etc. Plus my house is a mess and I need to pick it up a bit. I am so tired! Hopefully next week I can get some rest! LOL
