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!
Spring Greetings!! This piece is an advertisement for "Cottontail Carrot Company", a punchneedle design from The Old Tattered Flag. Punched with Valdani variegated threads, a neutral cotton fabric backing and magnets on all four corners, it is attached to a galvanized bucket. Measurements of the punched piece are 8"x5", the bucket measures 8.25" wide, 9.5" tall and 5" deep with a swing handle and I filled the bucket with faux greenery to simulate carrot greens. The greenery is not permanently attached and with the punchneedle being attached to the galvanized vessel via magnets, you may lift off the punchneedle to use the bucket for other decorative uses. You may add this to your home decor with price + travel cost.
