Stocking the antique booth today

Here are just a few items that I cleaned out from the garage, priced and am taking to Merchant Square today.

This child's western style belt holds a pile of old children's books.  I thought this could be the first backpack for children of the early 20th century!

Loads of bridal lace bits and pieces, lengths of vintage lace wrapped around old wooden spools tucked into an antique soap dish, and 4 vintage hand towels.  The towels are beautifully embroidered and there is a term for this type of embroidery or needlework.  Irish something, I think, but can't remember exactly.  Do you happen to know??
