Our pot has a grinder so the grounds just went into the holder & clogged it all up so the water overflowed. I hope he found his glass insulators and you found lots of paper goodies. BTW,I love your newest quilt.<BR/><BR/>Question: Where do you buy the verigated thread?Julie in the Barnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18147114606468287519noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-116061752441257596.post-73494194427152247612008-06-08T20:47:00.000-07:002008-06-08T20:47:00.000-07:00Hi Kim,Well it sounds like you had your series of ...Hi Kim,<BR/>Well it sounds like you had your series of adventures this weekend. <BR/>I have a mushroom cookie jar that my mom made for me when I was just starting out - it still sits on my kitchen counter and reminds that of her (I Love her dearly)- It is a little more natural in color than those ones but about as big as the biggest one ( you know it suppose to hold lots of cookies:0)<BR/>.She made it in a ceramics class in the mid 70's. ( I do have some nice pottery pieces on kitchen counter too) Its funny how one keeps things long after they are considered trendy because of sentimental attachment .I figure someone has to treasure them - it might as well be me.LOL<BR/>Your purse turned out nicely- I will look forward to your next purse creation...<BR/>Hope that the Antique Fair brought you a few treasures....<BR/>Regards,<BR/>Annaquiltmom annahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01976120921532056369noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-116061752441257596.post-77149748962335941772008-06-08T15:39:00.000-07:002008-06-08T15:39:00.000-07:00Some days it doesn't pay to get out of bed!

I did the same thing with the coffee pot on Christmas Day at my Mom's as company was walking in the door - good think Santa had already been there!

Growing up, that was the set my mom had and I remember when she was having a garage sell and trying to sell them for $25.00. I had to explain to her how no one in their right mind would pay that kind of money for a mushroom canister set. Thanks for the memories!Richellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12459271794551951607noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-116061752441257596.post-53666866881682683802008-06-08T11:58:00.000-07:002008-06-08T11:58:00.000-07:00Your poor hubby can't catch a break!

It's such a mess, and no fun to clean up.<BR/><BR/>Your bag is adorable.<BR/><BR/>A friend and I were talking about mushroom canisters just the other day! How funny to see them in your post! What's even more funny is that I was buying a yellow shirt and some brown shorts. I didn't buy them to go together because I don't like brown and yellow together except on sunflowers. We decided that it was the mushroom canisters from the 60's. However, after looking at the ones you posted there is no yellow on them! Now I have to tell her there is something else out there from the 60's that haunts us so bad we won't wear brown and yellow together. <BR/><BR/>Gas prices in my area of KY are 3.87. On Friday there were $3.79. After I saw on the news that crude oil jumped $10 more a barrel than the day before, I went to fill up. <BR/><BR/>Have fun at the antique faire!Busy Little Quilterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11030043135910710800noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-116061752441257596.post-86708427431226389742008-06-08T08:54:00.000-07:002008-06-08T08:54:00.000-07:00Gads - what is happening to these old guys?

And fabric is also at least twice as expensive!
