With the most wonderful illustrations by John Tenniel....
And an old scrapbook with tons and tons of wonderful old images from a 1937 Canadian newspaper..... love this one.....
Lots of fashion ads.....
And sweet art work.... I will have to share a bunch of these with you in the future.... really neat stuff....
So looking at all those tractors was definately worth it! I decided to try my hand at embroidery this weekend.... here is what I came up with. I am happy with it, considering I just kind of flew by the seat of my pants.... not sure what I will do with it now.... maybe attach it to some cardboard and make a door hanger or something like that.... let me know what you think! Hope you all had a fabulous weekend!

Oh my goodness!!! That Alice in Wonderland book is to die for!!!! And Jenn, your embroidery is so wonderful too!!! That's it... you've inspired me to get mine out again and give it another whirl.
Found you through Alisa...
I'm loving that Alice in Wonderland book -- the illustrations are gorgeous.
And the Star Weekly -- I was in Aberfoyle on the weekend and saw a crate full of those -- it doesn't seem so long ago that they came regularly with the newspaper on a Saturday!! I'm starting to feel old!!!
Oh you lucky gal, Jenn! That book is a real find. Wow! You must have been gitty buying it. I find its hard to keep a "poker face" and a steady hand when I find a treasure like that :)
Great job on the embroidery!
