We seem to frequently end up with wonderful sounding recipes here at NAVT and a while ago I started copying them. Unfortunately I didn't start soon enough. Anyhow, I am planning on putting together a Linen Ladies' Libations cookbook with whatever I have, plus whatever you all want to contribute. I will do it up so people can get it from me either in Microsoft Word or an Adobe PDF file. The PDF file will probably be fancier but in any case I am trying to do it so it will be simple for people to...

HeHe, I figured the NAVT board would appreciate this one: "All items from a non-smocking home" Well, as long as you aren't non-quilters too, I guess I'm okay with that... Mugg

A Happy, Healthy, Safe, & Festive Thanksgiving to all the lovely ladies (and the few stray gentlemen who wander here) & families of the NAVT Board. It's the nicest, best, & most congenial Board on 'the Bay'. We will meet my husband's youngest son & his wife at one of the Vicksburg casinos to have lunch, & then I'll fuss because I'm a better cook! But David doesn't like left-over turkey, & doing the proper Thanksgiving do with everything is silly just for the two of us. Stuffing for me,...

After trying on the Victorian/Edwardian and Vintage Clothing boards, someone sent me here -- and I already see some familiar names! These two items were in a lot of Victorian and Edwardian items and for the life of me I cannot figure out what they are -- but something nags at me that I should know -- that I may have seen one before... They are quite small (see the ruler), very tightly and precisely crocheted. Some have said that they thought they were bibs, but they are WAY too small. As...

I am thinking this is Chantilly lace on this dress, but would love confirmation of that. Also, I cannot seem to find enough close-up photos online to figure out if this would be handmade or machine-made. Thanks so much!

Hi, I have never seen a bedspread like this and am hoping you can help me with information. I would like to list it, but I don't really know what I have here. I am pretty sure it is cotton and it looks woven, maybe. It is heavy. If you can share any information, I would greatly appreciate it. Also, do you know if this type of bedspread is vintage or not. I really appreciate your help!

For those long time NAVT ladies, a quick update on our granddaughter Sydney Gabriella, who arrived at 26 weeks gestation, weighing 1 lb 9oz. Yesterday was her second birthday!!!! Here are some pictures from her party today! She was the belle of the ball! And quite a ball it was! It was a "Princess Party" and she was decked out with a pink tutu. Actually, several of the attendees came with their own tutus. it was quite a scene. And here is a link to her blog, which has...

It's a 1930s Hudson's Bay point blanket. It's 3.5 points and immaculate except for a small hole. I've looked at completed ebay listings and they seem to be all over the place. I want to price so that it'll sell within a week. Does anyone have experience with blanket sales?

I have this lovely vintage vanity tray which has a beautiful old lace doily sandwiched between the two layers of glass. It measures about 11 1/2" by 6". I'm wondering if anyone might know if this pattern has a name - if so what might it be - and also any other information anyone might care to supply. Many thanks in advance for your help. Here are 3 photos which might help.

I am a designer that loves to purchase vintage linen (mostly irish linen) tablecloths as gifts for my clients after I have finished their design project. I would just like to tell linen sellers that they need to type the dimensions of their cloths in to the title of their item for the convienence of their buyers. I believe they will sell more. I don't have the time nor the inclination to even look at a cloth unless the size is in the title. Thanks and pass this on if you would to anyone that...

Hello all. Could anyone tell me the name of this quilt pattern? It looks like a pinwheel but all the pinwheel patterns that came up in search don't look like this. Also, can anyone tell from looking at it the approximate age of this quilt? I know it isn't really old. Thank you for your help.
