grandbaby

I realise that ive only recently posted my favourite shot of my grand-daughter. But that was before my daughter sent me this one!

She suits vintage clothing so well and were very pleased about that. Its my truest passion you see.

quilted cushion

I have had this quilt for about 15 years and the edges were getting worse and wearing out with every wash. It needed a new life so I sewed two european sized cushions from the remaining good parts of a beautiful old vintage quilt. I probably wont leave it outside for use on the hammock as it is here.

I stitched on an edging ribbon as the quilt was too thick to do a normal hem and doubled it over to encase the raw edge.

I have my nannas trusty old Singer and it sews through everything.

my etsy shop

Here is my first eskimo jacket for my etsy shop. Its made from a vintage woolen blanket. I have had these in my head for so long it was really good to finally see one made up! The enjoyable part for me is working out how to use old embroidery pieces.
