A few days ago I sold this fabric to someone on etsy. Today I heard from my customer that she had made the fabric into this great bracelet for her shop Ponder and Stitch. It is unbelievably cute.
I just love seeing something I loved go to someone new and become something completely different! What a great transformation. The vintage butter yellow button is just the perfect combination.
three vintage fabric doll dresses. saved from a falling apart garage in eastern Pennsylvania.
I had a great piece of vintage sheet fabric pinned to my living room wall, very college dorm like [bleh] and it only took me a year to paint this wooden frame to put this fabric into.
I love putting together these banners from vintage fabric. Here is the newest one in the shop. I think that it feels very much like a late summer floral fabric., full of cottage style and whimsy.
Another vintage fabric banner in the shop. This one is made out of vintage fabric squares. I usually make the banners from triangles of fabric, but I decided to try something new. Gatherings of vintage lace, doilies and buttons also decorate the bunting.
I made this really great pink and orange fabric banner yesterday in the afternoon. It was a nice afternoon and the bright summery sunshine made this banner even more bright and cheery.
In the shop [now]
I discovered some great fabrics this weekend at the Flea Market. [I can't wait to go back next weekend too, weather permitting] The red and white fabric was one huge piece that ended up being five yards long! What a find. I have them for sale in one yard pieces.
These floral curtains are so cute too! I almost kept them for myself, but there was just not quite enough fabric for where I needed them. Maybe someone else can find the perfect window!
This morning proved to be worth dragging myself out of bed to go to a local church's annual flea market sale. It was big last year and I did fairly well, but I was quite pleased with my steals this year. 
I found this great paint by number for a quarter! A quarter! Nice. I have been more and mroe attached to these cheesy things lately. Some are truly bad, but I thought this one was sweet and well worth the price. Its going to be staying.
Then I found a whole mess of vintage bed linens. I adore these oldie prints! They will be excellent for the shop, as my vintage fabric stash was waning. I have already washed them, not they just need to be cut into one yard pieces. Fun!
I put some new fabric scrap bags in the shop! These sold out so quickly last month, I decided to make up some more. This time I used old vintage greeting cards to close the bags. Get them while they are still available!
New vintage fabrics in the shop this weekend. I am especially in love with the folk/Scandinavian print. I only wish that I has a use for it. There is just something sosoothing about cutting and folding vintage fabric. I just feel so relaxed as I smooth it out and fold it carefully, feeling the texture and weight.

Staring at my lace and vintage fabric scraps today I became very inspired. I paged through the slips in my closet and chose this lovely number to embellish. It is not hard to create something so beautiful with a great base color, like this slip! The aqua is so bright and lovely and looks just down right sweet with the touches of pink lace.
So, I have been playing around with photo editing lately and I am loving it! It is really inspiring me to get back into photography more seriously. A little A La Before and After:
