Vintage Altered Bingo Cards

July 15, 2021

Today, I am sharing something from the archives. The Vintage Altered Bingo Cards were published in Sew Somerset Winter 2014 Issue. Pages 108 – 110. They are a combination assemblage of paper, bingo cards, and sewn collages using fabric. The phrases were chalked to add to the vintage feel of the project. I tried to keep the project neutral in color, although they could easily be made in colors as well.

As I type this today I cannot believe it is already July 15th! Where does summer go? I am enjoying my little guy here today (he is napping as I type) and in just a few more weeks he will be 2 years old! That is crazy!! I have just a few things on my summer bucket list. I don’t think some of the bigger wishes will happen, so I made goals that were much easier.

I hope you are enjoying your July, where ever you are!

{Candlewick Quilt Stocking}

December 1, 2019

Happy December! Today, I want to share a stocking I made using a vintage quilt that had been candlewicked on it. I found this wonderful tutorial of how to put the lining inside and finish it all.

I added some vintage lace bits and mother of pearl buttons too. This stocking is available in my Etsy shop. It would make a lovely gift or accent in the home.

I hope you are staying warm and snuggly in your part of the world!

{Simply Neutrals Tuesday #39 – Little Altered Dress}

March 27, 2018

I am joining Wen for Simply Neutrals Tuesday. Please visit her blog and see Wen’s and see many other artists beautiful posts as well: appleapricot.blogspot.com

This little white dress was a recent project of mine over the course of several weeks. I like to take busy work with me to the doctor’s office, and this was a perfect one to create and stitch while waiting.

I love the little girl’s face, so sweet and lovely.

Little bits of antique and vintage laces, beads, sari silk, fabrics and mother of pearl buttons…

The little piece all finished, and hanging from the hanger.

Have a wonderful week and Happy Easter to all of you!

{Whispers of Pink Fabric Collage Journal}

March 10, 2017

I wanted to share my fabric journal that I was working on this past week. It really feels great to be sewing again and working on things in the studio. I used various vintage images that were printed on fabric and I tried to find them that had “pink” somewhere in the photo.

I incorporated lots of vintage embellishments: hankies, mother of pearl buttons, fabric flowers, antique laces and trims, doilies, and ribbon. This journal has a little locket that is attached to the ribbon streamers as well.

I will be listing this in my Etsy shop:

I am grateful to have power as well right now. Like many, Michigan was hit quite severely with a windstorm and over 800,000 were without power since Wednesday. Many are still without and it is COLD. I hope they get it restored soon!

Happy Friday!
