A few weeks ago I received an envelope from Linda of LBP Sews. She had written to see if I was interested in some transfers that she had found. Never one to turn down transfers this envelope held some of the most beautiful transfer patterns I have ever seen.
I had no idea that Sears Roebuck made transfers. Betty Burton produced these transfers exclusively for Sears in the 20's and 30's. There are over 100 images in this packet and only one is missing. I couldn't be luckier.
This week I am sharing the amazing days of the week homemaker with her exquisite art deco shape.

I imagine these on a sweet set of towels. Perhaps a quilt without the words. A pillow or even a Bible cover.
A few of you asked for the images that I used on the little notebooks. I bought these vintage nursery transfer patterns off eBay a while back. They are the perfect tiny size.

ReplyDeletethey are adorable! i love the idea for the Bible cover! my sister and i were looking for some ideas for Christmas presents, and that would make a GREAT gift! :) thank you for sharing them!
ReplyDeleteOh, those are charming! I've never seen that design anywhere. I can almost see that dress as an applique. (In a small-print feedsack. On some old toweling. I could do this!) p.s. Did you really leave a frown on my blog? You make me laugh. :-( back atcha
ReplyDeleteOMGosh, if only my hands were able to still do stitching!!!!! Those are freakin' adorable.
ReplyDeleteHugs,
Meri
Oh, Renee....Linda has sent you the sweetest transfers! You will have so much fun stitching up something adorable! Can't wait to see what you do using them.
ReplyDeleteHave a great Tuesday, my dear friend!
Blessings,
Carolynn. xo
I really like those!! What a sweet gift!!!
ReplyDeleteI have a special place in my heart for these DOW transfers, with Tuesday being my favorite. As a vintage linen hoarder who does entirely too much ironing, I used to collect Tuesday towels. For all I know I still have them somewhere in my hoard/stash. Lovely collection!!
ReplyDeleteWhat a find, they are beautiful Renee!
ReplyDeleteI love day of the week towels!! I have never seen these images before. Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteBlessings,
Amy Jo

I am so glad you liked the transfers! I thought they were adorable but knowing my time restraints and eye sight, I knew you would get more good from them than me! I love the Bible cover idea...

Those are precious transfers. What a nice gift. I didn't know Sears did that either. Love the bunnies from your notebook too. I hope you're enjoying these days when the kids are back in school!
ReplyDeleteAs I did washing yesterday...it hit me...how did we know that Monday was laundry day? Grandma and the dishtowels told us so! So cute! =D
ReplyDeleteThose are amazing. I want to download them, but I have never even embroidered a stitch in my life! These are so cute I might start today!
ReplyDeleteOh those are the sweetest transfers! So lucky!! Thanks so much for always sharing them :) Have a lovely day! xo Holly
ReplyDeleteSuch sweet transfer patterns! You're so good to share them!
ReplyDeleteWouldn't it be wonderful if all we had to do was the things listed: Wash on Monday, etc.?!
Of course, we wouldn't have lovely blogs to visit then, would we?
I love these little transfers and that you so much for sharing them with us. I love to embroider and these would be darling in my kitchen!! Thank you again.
