Vintage Threads and Loops

Preserving our fiber history...one stitch at a time ...

Welcome to Vintage Threads and Loops!

Hello!  My name is Tammy Ruiz and I’m a fourth-generation crafter located in Western NY. 

When in my happy place, there is always some type of fiber and a needle or hook in my hand.  Through the years, I've found that my preference tends to be “unplugged” with my go-to’s being mostly all hand work such as hand quilting, punch needle, rug hooking, rug braiding, repro antique samplers and wool applique.

Having a vintage style, collecting antique items and attaching a stitched piece to them is also a fun hobby of mine.  Whether it be through creating, collecting or decorating, may you also receive as much joy preserving our fiber history!

Saint Nick is a punchneedle piece designed by The Old Tattered Flag. I punched him using all variegated Valdani threads, a fabric binding and fabric on the back for a completed finish. Saint Nick is mounted to a wooden hornbook and dressed with greens, a small pinecone and ribbons. He would love to meet you and help you celebrate the Christmas season. The punched piece is 13x6" and the wooden hornbook measures 24x7". The materials to create Saint Nick total $143, but I'm kindly asking $160.00 plus travel cost. To adopt Saint Nick, please contact me via my email: Tammy@VintageTandL.com Many thanks! ~~ Tammy
