***SOLD***Scrappy Quilt Flower on Fabric Covered Paper Mache Box with Scrappy Quilted Heart Pincushion

***SOLD***My first offending is a paper mache box I’ve covered with Moda fabric, tinted with a permanent ink pad and then sealed it. It has a scrappy quilt flower I created out of pieces of vintage antique quilt bits I have had and added a vintage flower button on top. The flower has been carefully glued in place on the top of the box! The box measures 4” x 4”. It will come with a sweet heart pincushion I’ve made of another piece of vintage quilt and it’s been hand sewn and carefully stuffed with premium stuffing. To it I have added bits of old vintage tatting and other trim as well as some vintage buttons and glass head pins. The quilt pieces are old and fragile but I have carefully hand sewn everything and just know they may ravel etc…The flower on top of the box is about 5 1/2” wide. The heart pincushion is 5” tall and at the widest part 4” wide. It will fit nicely inside the box and I will ship it like that. I’m kindly asking $65 for the set and $5.50 for shipping. Thank you so much for stopping. Click main pic for more views and more on my FB page as well as IG.

Velvet Heart

Made from a vintage piece of red velvet that I dyed a bit with coffee this sweet heart is reminiscent of bygone Valentine's Days. A piece of repro red print cotton backs the heart of velvet while 2 vintage mother-of-pearl buttons adorn the front. It makes a lovely pincushion as it is stuffed with wool homegrown in my state of Pennsylvania to keep your pins from rusting. The heart will also make a lovely addition to a bowl or basket. It measures 7 1/4 inches tall and 5 1/2 inches wide. This is the last of my red velvet so I cannot take orders. There are two available. I am kindly asking $30 each which includes the cost of shipping.
