Sold*** Love Birds Ditty Bag

This sweet bag is so tiny! It measures only 9” long from the top of the strap to the bottom of the bag and 4” wide. I stitched this bag using a pattern from With Thy Needle and Thread. The linen is hand-dyed with just the right amount of staining and a few splotches here and there. It is completely lined with a tan and red fabric I had in my stash and backed with a beautiful red print. I added a bunch of preserved Sweet Annie **Flowers** that can be removed and a sweet mother of pearl button and bronze heart. Kindly asking $42.00 and $5.50 for travel fare.

Stitched Hearts Needle Minders ----ALL SOLD----

Each of these Valentines needle minders, which I created with my fellow stitchers in mind, is stitched on linen using overdyed threads, and is lightly padded with batting. The backs are completely covered with a matching fabric. They will stay firmly in place, either on your stitching, or will attach to any metal surface, such as the base of your stitching lamp, to hold your needles. I’ve used small rare earth magnets with these, and they’re even strong enough to hold a small pair of scissors. They measure 1 5/8” across, and travel fare is 4.00. Please click on the photo to see additional picture of the back with magnet. Sorry, but no orders please. **Beeswax**
