SOLD! Velvet Heart Pin Cushion

*Item is SOLD! Thanks so much. I'm happy to offer you a primly aged velvet heart shaped pin cushion with a sprig of appliqued wool flowers with embroidered stitches to brighten up your sewing basket, or simply display in a primitive bowl. It is made in the tradition of seamstresses of centuries past when keeping pins tidy and safe was of utmost importance. Pincushions were often exchanged between friends. The velvet has been aged to mimic the wear that sharp pins will create after years of taking them in and out. Surrounding the entire outside of the heart is a row of embroidered stitches as embellishment. The pincushion has been firmly stuffed with wool and cotton. The bottom of the pin cushion is made from a wonderful 1800's reproduction cotton print fabric. I think it is particularly nice and in keeping with the time period. Please scroll through the photos to view all the details. All visible stitching is done by my hand. My selling price includes shipping. I'm kindly asking $35.00.

***SOLD*** Heart Ditty Bag

I made this bag using one of my favorite reproduction fabrics. It is going to be hard to part with this one. The bag is approximately 10 1/2" long x 7" across at the bottom. I kept the strap shorter on this bag to make it easier to hang from a hook or peg. The straps are 14" long making the entire bag 24" long. The fabric I used is a gorgeous red, black, cream and mustard reproduction with a black and cream striped lining and back. I appliqued an oatmeal colored wool heart and attached a long brass skeleton key to the front of the bag, along with an old vintage button from my collection. This bag would look wonderful with a bit of Sweet Annie tucked inside. Kindly asking $55.00 and $4.50 for postage.
