Weekly update: acquisitions
I took a box of stuff to Salvation Army this week and found these goodies to take home.
The Marimekko cotton print turned out to be 3-1/8 yards and 54" wide. Just $2! It's home dec weight -- good for placemats or tote bags.
I've had the same dogwood print tablecloth in red and in forest green. I looked for more information and found out that the manufacturer is Weil and Durrse.
The linen tablecloth was never used.
I got the poinsettia tablecloth and these five handkerchiefs at an estate sale. I especially like the floral bouquet.
P.S. I wonder why dogwood was such a popular motif. I have these dogwood hankies in my collection.
