Basket Case

Basket Case, original collage on book cover

The interior of a physiology textbook circa 1920's:

(Carnivorous) eats flesh.

(Omnivorous) both.

(Herbivorous) vegetable eater.

(Inebriate) after you get the habit of drinking.

And that's what Miss Edna Kirchner wrote. I added the basket case bit.

Sewing Notions

Vintage Sewing Basket Full 'o Crafty Notions

I had planned to spend the weekend doing a bit of spring-y cleaning 'round my virtual shops and....I did! Both shops and this space have a new banner using snippets from 1950's newsprint (a fav of mine). The dust was swept out of the corners 'n off the shelves and I even spruced up my profile pages and re-addressed shop policies--all that nitty-gritty stuff that has been put on the back burner again and again. In addition to cleaning virtually, I did a bit of sorting and cleaning of inventory (including this sewing basket) for my newly re-named shop, Sushipot Vintage (it was time to cast off the old name of Sushipot Parts). AND...before I head off to bed for the night....a BIG thank you to everyone who came out to shop my pendant sale.
