This next couple were a lucky find. An old couple across the road were selling a lot of things as they were sadly moving to a nursing home. Their family were selling all these beautiful bits and bobs, such as the purple/blue pillowcases.. Later on I saw they had thrown a great crochet rug into a skip. It was raining and I meant to return to save it, but alas, the skip had been removed and the rug had been taken away.. Luckily I did buy these pillowcases and treasure them.
The white pillowcase was bought from a fab shop that was in Lilyfield - Frou Frou, run by the even more fab Parisa. Unfortunately she moved up to the Blue Mountains (their gain!), but I have such fond memories of her shop.. And the subsequent heart flutters it made me have!

lovely pillowslips! the top ones are amazing.
I love the pink ones & I'm pretty sure my auntie had the purple & blue sheet set.
Now I remember them! Pretty things.
you have some lovelies - my sister and i used to find gorgeous never-used *pairs* of cases with hand-crocheted lace edges for *4 bucks* - egads! don't see prices like those anymore.
