Stitcher's Pocket

I put the finishing touches on this stitcher's pocket from Milady's Needle this morning. I actually did the stitching a while ago but I was a little intimidated with the idea of finishing it.  I took my time and read through the instructions, changed what I needed to change and this is my completed needlebook and pocket. I am very happy with it.

A few "new" old patterns

This morning when I stopped at the thrift store I found stack of old patterns. I was in heaven! I picked up 12 to add to my collection. This last one is a "teen age duster-housecoat", and it's just my size. I would like to make myself a housecoat as soon as I find the right fabric. I really love the heart pockets!
