Stumble It!
Oh, the patterns of this vintage material! I know they are duplicating them now, but even the feel of the fabric makes you wonder about their story.........
I am making little things from scraps of vintage feedsack I have collected. I have quilt pieces that have been hand stitched but never made it to a quilt.....I thought they were really pretty ornaments for a quilter's tree.......
This style I used vintage buttons. I layered batting in between and zigag stitched and pinked the edges. They are really quite showy on the tree.....
This style I added the cloth daisy in the center because I didn't have so many colored vintage buttons, and besides, I thought it gave it a different look.
You can see how bright and showy they are. I am wondering if I should display them with little twinkle lights on the tree, too. I will be taking them to the show this weekend, and then they will be offered in my etsy shop for $3.00 each. I will give a break on multiples. I only have so many, so I don't know what I will have left after two shows.......
Also, tomorrow I will show you a surprise! Make sure you come back to see!
Beautiful fabrics!
