❤️Handmades from my heart❤️

Welcome to Yankee Girl Dry Goods!

❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

My name is Michelle Blanco.  I grew up in western Massachusetts where my grandmothers taught me how to crochet and sew, and to bake the best apple pies!  The name Yankee Girl came from my love of all things Massachusetts.  I love to use antiques and vintage items in everything I create whenever possible. Knowing that the things I create are comprised of objects with a history of their own makes it even more special.  
 

Please feel free to reach out to me to purchase, with any questions you might have, or even just to say hello; I would love to hear from you!

Welcome to my November update!

 

 

Wool Santa Ditty Bag
I had so much fun designing this little bag that I made a few more for this month’s update. I added some preserved juniper that can be removed. It is completely lined with a pretty cotton fabric and the outside of the bag is a beautiful brick red 100% wool fabric. I used vintage belt buckles from my collection and a small jingle bell so it resembles Santa’s suit. It measures 5” x 6”. The handle adds 5” to the length. I have 3 of these available. Kindly asking $55.00 and $8.00 for travel fare.

Peace on Earth Pinkeep Drum
Stitching this drum made me smile from start to finish! Who wouldn’t smile while stitching something so beautiful to celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ! The blue linen and gold stars remind me of a bright sky at night. It is 4.5” across x 2.5” high. I used a beautiful holly print Christmas fabric for the bottom and side and added several glass head pins, a vintage button, and a dove charm. It is firmly stuffed with wood shavings and crushed walnut shells to keep your pins sharp. Kindly asking $95.00 and $10.00 for travel fare.

****Sold, Thank You*** Quaker Christmas Drum
This sweet Christmas Quaker drum is a big one! I cross stitched it with traditional Christmas colors of red and green. It is 4.5” across x 2.5” high. I used a beautiful holly print Christmas fabric for the bottom and side and added some pretty red ric-rac around the top. I added several glass head pins, a vintage button, and a Christmas tree charm. It is firmly stuffed with wood shavings and crushed walnut shells to keep your pins sharp. Kindly asking $95.00 and $10.00 for travel fare.

Bright Red Christmas Sleigh Pinkeep
This is probably my favorite holiday creation this year! These sleighs are made from 100% wool and stuffed firmly with sawdust. It is approximately 3” x 61/2” long. The runners of the sleigh are wired so they can be curled more or straightened. I added rusty bells all around the sleigh to resemble old sleighs from days gone by. I added an antique green swirl pin, several glass head pins and a sweet peppermint glass pin that I created for the season. Kindly asking $95.00 and $10.00 for travel fare. *My creations are not toys and should be kept out of reach of anyone under 12 years of age.
