There is a house on my short drive to work, that has been for sale for a few months. Its a big old Craftsman style, and I love it. I really wanted to buy it, until I noticed a "Sale Pending" sign the other morning.
Well yesterday, I am driving along, oogling the house, and I notice a tiny sign in the front yard, "Garage Sale."
I slam on breaks and run inside, and it turns out to be a completely un-advertised Estate Sale. The only thing I saw that I wanted in my quick glance, was a giant box of patterns marked, "$10 for all"
So I took them all, as you can plainly see. Most were from the 40s, 50s and 60s. Above is a picture of the best ones! I am quite happy with my score, and watch ETSY, as I will be listing the ones I can bear to part with soon.
In other ETSY news, I was featured in another treasury!!
I am the skirt in the top left corner:

I also bought a new Hot Rod magazine (My and My Fella's guilty pleasure!) and it featured tons of 50s hot rod pictures, with 50s swimsuit models! I will be scanning and posting for your viewing pleasure soon!
