Thinking of Spring

My Label

This is my label. A friend drew the thimble from one in my collection. I love red and I collect thimbles-thus the name.

art pins/valentines

I made these last year for the Valentines Day sale. Some of the pins are vintage fabric, some are new. The heart is a piece of vintage hanky. I love making things with the little scraps I just can't throw away.

UGH!! I'm sick

Have had the crud for a week-went to the doc and she says I have Croup!!! Can you believe it??? At my age? Who knew adults could get that! I also suspect I have a sinus infection...the worst thing is I have no energy to create anything right now! Bummer! I do not like being sick!
Stay healthy!!!!

Tablecloth Dress

A happy customer! Tablecloth sewed to a t-shirt...very cute!

West James Gallery

This is my Gallery in Columbus WI. The view is as you walk in the front door. We have over 30 local artists in a beautifully renovated bank in our Historic Downtown. Come visit us!

Diaper Bag

This was custom made for a friend. The yellow flowered fabric is from a vintage tablecloth. Not your usual diaper bag!

Pillows

Here are 3 pillows I made using some vintage items. One is from a hanky, one a piece of a tablecloth and another "Scotty" hanky is in the center of the third.
Can you tell I like red????

Hi! I am just starting this blog to "brag" about my creations. I make things out of vintage fabric-mostly tablecloths from the 30's thru the 50's- they all have damage so I cut them up and give them a new life!
I hope you come back to visit after I figure out how to put picutes here!!! thanks!!! kim
