Found some wonderful vintage linens this past week ...my heart pounded when I saw them ..lots of old lace..runners..pillowslips..doily's ..even an old lace window panel ..
I wonder who had collected them . Here are just a few...

Thank you ..I couldn't believe it either ..yes hope to use some of the lace pieces on my dolls .
OH MY GOSH! I am so envious! They are awesome... who could ever give these up?!!
Oh, breathtaking. The redwork, and at the Thrift Store. Honestly, you gals have THE BEST Goodwill and Thrift Stores. I don't have any around here. I don't where they are in MA. I'll have to investigate.
What will you do with your beauties?

Know doubt you found a priceless collection of treasures! I can't imagine why someone would let them go. Some of it reminds me of the embroidery that my mom used to do when I was young.
Enjoy!

Wow....great pieces!! I love old textiles and linens...Don't find them around here....In fact, I've given up on our "thrift" shops - the last time I went, the only thing even worthy of a glance was a vintage rolling pin - it wasn't anything special in any respect and covered with a horrible sticky finish - and smelled bad to boot. Price...$25. Huh??? I'd be better off at an antique store - at least they usually know what JUNK really is....Can't wait to see how you "incorporate" some of your finds....Wishing you a bliss-filled weekend!
