This is something she would wear to her bridge club every week and lunch. And the purse!!, I love the purse. I wish I had it, that is such a great find along with the gloves. You do display things very well. Where do you store all these collections you have? Anyway, love your stuff.Bethnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5276001672375576791.post-48844632448151625082009-05-12T06:13:00.000-06:002009-05-12T06:13:00.000-06:00Hi Lori--

She's definitely going to be doing some sewing when she gets home!Sherrihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17947050490192912888noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5276001672375576791.post-15985176669366459572009-05-11T18:09:00.000-06:002009-05-11T18:09:00.000-06:00Martha is beautiful.

My grandmother would have worn a dress like that, but by the time I knew my grandmother (when I was born) she was a little larger than that little dress would allow! I remember my grandmother with those accesories, especially going to church.dream quilt createhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13659318605290158236noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5276001672375576791.post-14339494389019887692009-05-11T17:34:00.000-06:002009-05-11T17:34:00.000-06:00I just love that dress and especially the sweet fa...I just love that dress and especially the sweet fabric. What a great find! I'd love to see your house someday. It sounds very vintage and I love vintage things. The only thing I own that's vintage belong to my Great Grandparents. It's a beautiful carved headboard and footboard that needs refinishing right now. It would look beautiful with a vintage looking quilt on it.Kim Walushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07867301434590115299noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5276001672375576791.post-12118117645557493962009-05-11T16:11:00.000-06:002009-05-11T16:11:00.000-06:00I think Martha may be someone I knew back in the e...I think Martha may be someone I knew back in the early days of my marriage. She looks vaguely familiar. It could be that she is ready for an afternoon of pinochle with her pinochle club or she might even be going into the big city with a good friend of hers to do a little shopping and have a nice lunch in the tearoom of Bergner's Department Store. If she is who I think she might be, she said she has her eye on some lovely fabric in Bergner's fabric department for a new frock. She will stop by the notions department (where my Aunt Leah works - she really did work thee!!!) and pick up the thread, seam binding, buttons, and various other items she needs. Martha just loves to shop!!Funoldhaghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13484311080018327229noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5276001672375576791.post-4890408842766129772009-05-11T13:04:00.000-06:002009-05-11T13:04:00.000-06:00I'm not reading the other comments until I think a...I'm not reading the other comments until I think about where I think Martha is going. It's going to be fun to see what others say. <br /><br />But first... I LOVE THAT DRESS! I love the fabric. I love the style. I wish that would come back in vogue. I could so see me wearing that. Maybe we are on the cusp of it coming back?! <br /><br />I think Martha is meeting with some of her girlfriends at the local grange to discuss ways to improve the community square in the heart of town. And it's a pot-luck. And as talented as Martha is, she can never seem to get her Jello to set up just right... so she's bringing lemon bars.<br /><br />PS... and Martha likes to write swooshy too. And I love that about her. And I love that about you!happy zombiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11241332829157340732noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5276001672375576791.post-42282194544281170902009-05-11T12:50:00.000-06:002009-05-11T12:50:00.000-06:00I think Martha is glorious and she is probably sto...I think Martha is glorious and she is probably stopping by the bank before she meets at the local coffee shop with the committee she is chairing for a church fundraiser. <br />I'm not a collector but I sure enjoy that you are!!Mary on Lake Pulaskihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16965950454417494966noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5276001672375576791.post-91319495533381731422009-05-11T12:00:00.000-06:002009-05-11T12:00:00.000-06:00The style is definately late 40s early 50s.

My dad always thought it was crazy to collect old things. He said the same thing, "we threw that out long ago". I remember my mom always wore a dress. She didn't start wearing pants everyday until the 80s.Nanette Merrillhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05734358126338038553noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5276001672375576791.post-1833699704377316692009-05-11T11:13:00.000-06:002009-05-11T11:13:00.000-06:00I think Martha is headed to an afternoon tea socia...I think Martha is headed to an afternoon tea social, or maybe to her book club.

She's taking her favorite recipe, the one her Grandmother passed on to her, for lady fingers with that "special" filling that all the ladies at church have been trying so hard to recreate! She's really looking forward to the social because her special "beau" will be there. Maybe it's a little unseemly of a woman of her age (26) to get so worked up over a beau, but he is just soooo sweet to her! Maybe she won't end up like old spinster Aunt Maybel after all... just my 2 cents worth...Loralynnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15639809624070979958noreply@blogger.com
