***Sold, Thank you***1834 Pinkeep Drum

I love making drum pinkeeps and this tiny one was no exception. The design is by Blackbird Designs called Vintage Pincushion that I adapted and made into a drum. It’s tiny, only 2 3/4” tall x 2” wide. I aged the drum to make it look old and hand stitched chenille trim around the top and bottom. I added an antique glass swirl pin and two antique mother of pearl buttons. I also created a matching wool strawberry scissor fob and added a tiny pair of scissors. Kindly asking $65 and $8.00 for travel fare.

I love this vintage looking cat, he was definitely one of my favorite Halloween designs to stitch. The bottom pinkeep was made using a black fabric with orange dots. The cross stitched piece was stitched on purple linen. I added a row of beads to the bottom portion and orange ricrac to the top portion. I made a creepy skull pin and also added an antique glass swirl pin. Kindly asking $65.00 and $7.50 for travel.

****SOLD***Patriotic Pocket

I love stitching patriotic designs! We live in the best country in the world and honoring our freedoms is so very important to me! This sweet patriotic pocket was such a joy to stitch. It was stitched using a pattern by Teresa Kogut called Land That I Love. I added some white reindeer moss and three fabric pinwheels that I made from contrasting fabrics. It is approximately 8 1/2” long x 4 1/2” wide. The pocket measures 15” to the top of the pinwheels. The pinwheels, reindeer moss and stuffing are removable and the bag is reversible. Kindly asking $57.00 and $6.50 for travel fare.

Bird Ditty Bag

I absolutely love creating these sweet ditty bags! My favorite color is red so of course there is red all through this bag! The lining is a beautiful red civil war reproduction fabric from my stash. The back of the bag and strap were made using a rich brown reproduction civil war fabric that compliments the lining perfectly. It measures 8.5” x 6.5” with a 21” strap. Fun fact about the way I do some of my bags...they are completely reversible. When I want to change things up around my house I simply turn the bag inside out and add a sprig of greenery or Sweet Annie. The second photo shows what it looks like after turning it inside out. Kindly asking $42.00 and $4.50 for travel.

This has been my favorite finish this month! I think I’m pretty smitten with these Nantucket Style baskets and love stitching sweet designs for the inside. This particular design was stitched using a pattern from a book by Blackbird Designs. I added a tiny pair of scissors with a sweet plump strawberry that is filled with wool scraps and is the perfect size for my little basket. It is 51/2” long x 5” wide. Kindly asking $75.00 and $10.00 for travel. The weave in this basket makes me think of a **Beeskep**
