Friday opshopping

I had to collect my sewing machine today, and decided to nip into Savers again to see if they had any second hand ones. They didn't, but I found other stuff to buy of course. A box of Tarot cards and book, $6.99. It had been opened, but doesn't look as if it has been used much.

Cute piece of warm fabric to make charity cot quilts. $2.99


Passed Vinnies in Para Road on the way home from Greensborough and popped in.  Found this large piece of tapestry canvas for $3.  No I'm not planning on doing any kind of needlepoint..  This will be for a craft experiment based on something I saw in an art gallery recently.  
 Pack of cards with information about wineries and cafes etc. in the Yarra Valley.  I found a similar box of cards on the inner city area of Melbourne  at our opshop recently, and am wondering if there was a whole set of them.



Back home at the Eltham BSL, I found this tin for 30 cents., for a friend who collects royalty memorabilia.  Chances are she's already got it and if so, I'll just use it myself.
 


Skirt for $3.00
Some more odd balls of wool for JanMac in Shepparton who knits things for charity.  $3.

It just shows that op shopping far and wide gets the goods.
