Vintage Stitching and a GIVEAWAY!!


I have been traveling
with needle in hand over
the last couple weeks.
I managed to finish a couple little projects.
 
Maybe you or your mother
carried one... 
 

 
 
 
  
I always wanted a pretty hankie, so
lady-like and  dainty.
A lovely to pull out of your purse
or set upon your dresser. 
 
 
Adding a sweet little bit of
personalizing on the corner.
 
 
The details of these are
I added the colored crocheted edge, and
then I tested out my new
Fantasia Aurifloss set.
Which I LOVE!! 
They travel a lot better than
that rolled on the little plastic spools. 
And who can resist those sweet little
wooden spools.
 
 I used an iron on transfer from
Colonial Patterns for both the
 hankies.
 
 
 
 
 


These two will probably find their
way into to a Easter basket or two.


 
and I will have to make a couple for myself. 
 
 
http://www.colonialpatterns.com/shop/product/aunt-martha-s-vintage-pattern-collection/
 
This is my third blog anniversary.  
Over the course of the next few
weeks there will be a different giveaway.

  39. Thank you for the opportunity to join in the giveaway. At Colonial Patterns, I found a nice quilting book: Modern - Colonial. Either I don't recognize many of the names of the blocks in the publication or I'm not familiar with the block at all. Looks like a nice book to add to my library.

  43. I don't know if it's my favorite but "someday" I'm going to buy the state birds pattern and embroider those birds. My grandma had a state birds quilt she made and I admired for years. Sadly it "disappeared" but I bet if I went to a certain cousin's house unannounced I'd find it! :) dorisquiltingqueen at yahoo dot com
