Vintage Inspired Needlebooks

Hi everyone hope you're having 

a good week!

I've been making some needlebooks

this week and have

two to show you

 I used some French sewing machine

adverts. transferred onto fabric

then handstitched these

onto some ticking fabric

embellished with black stitching

mop buttons, lace

and button & loop closure

I was pleased with the result

These are now available for sale

on my Ebay

Fabric Collage Tote, Teacup Pincushion

I've just finished a small collection of items

The first is this fabric collage tote

I've used an image from 

the Graphics Fairy

and built up textures with fabrics and vintage doiley

then hand stitched with pearls

seed beads, mother of pearl buttons, charms, 

seam binding ribbon

I'll also be linking this to Brag Monday 

at the Graphics Fairy

 

I'm also linking this bag to

Kerryanne's Friday Shabbilicious Party

I also made a small

collection of pincushions

one in a vintage teacup

the other two in vintage

glass dishes

they all come with a complementary

vintage hatpin

they were such fun to make

Shabbilicious Friday Party

Have just joined in with

the Shabbilicious Friday Party

over at Kerryanne's blog

I've added my shabby French

provincial mirror

 I picked this mirror up at a

garage sale some time ago

for a song and thought it would

look great with a shabby makeover

The sculptured rose at the top

as well as the detail around

the edges give it that

wonderful French provincial look

It has since been sold on

my ebay
