❤️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!

Sweet Red Tomato Pinkeep
I love making these tomatoes so much and thought a strawberry on top was the perfect choice. This was made using beautiful hand dyed red wool from Blackberry Primitives. I added a few black pins, a beautiful antique glass swirl pin and a silver heart in hand charm. It’s firmly stuffed/filled with 2 1/2 - 3 cups of crushed walnut shells to keep your pins and needles sharp. The pink strawberry is firmly attached to the tomato. It is approximately 4 1/2” tall. Kindly asking $95.00 and $10.00 for travel fare.

Tomato Purse Needle Keep
I’ve had so much fun creating these and put so many little details in each one. I cross stitched a tiny tomato on linen and attached it to this tiny bronze purse frame. I added some Mother of Pearl buttons and a bronze heart in hand charm to the front. Inside, I used a sweet fabric that says stitch. I added some wool scraps for your needles, a tiny bronze bird charm and some vintage ric-rac trim. It is tiny. It’s approximately 3.25” wide x 2.25” tall. 4.5” when it’s open. I also added some aged red ribbon to the outside. Kindly asking $85.00 and $7.00 for travel fare.
