Sugar Lump Studios

Art by Nancy Maxwell James

{Little Fabric Pouches}

September 21, 2011

Just a few fabric photo pouches I wanted to share with you. I love finding antique laces and incorporating them with old photos. I also love making fabric flowers with organic batting, fabrics, buttons, beads etc. Something about cooler weather always makes me want to sew. Hope you are enjoying fall so far!

    Well there, you have done it again with beautiful creations! These pouches and all the flowers and lace are absolutely stunning! The rocking horse really catches my eye! I use to love riding on those and the stick ponies! Wanted to be a cowgirl!

    Hi Nancy, Oooooh, your vintage looking pouches are amazing!
    I especially love the one with the little girl riding the rocking horse! Can you imagine being a child and discovering that fabulous rocking horse under the Christmas tree?
