Vintage table cloth for my sunny window




Afternoons in my bathroom are very bright.
I have been collecting and drooling over vintage doileys
in hopes that some day i may find the time to do this.


In the meantime....
6 kids, a stack of vintage tablecloths and a few stitches
Pretty enough for me.
And i didn't do any damage to the cloth so i can take it down when i have completed
(and started)
my masterpiece
