Vintage Sewing


 I've just extended the sewing challenge to 2:30 pm CST, and then I'm off to do the random drawing.  In the meantime I thought I would share some of my "vintage sewing" projects!
My hobby (translation: obsession) is vintage-style aprons, which I'm not only collecting but now also creating.

Here are just a couple I thought I would share. They aren't cards or altered art, but they are handmade on a vintage sewing machine, and I reproduce vintage styles!
I also share them on etsy :-)

I'll have to give another warning that if I disappear for a couple of days, my electricity may be out. Because, yes, we have another ice storm. This one was not as bad, and I think it will melt by the weekend, but I am a bit angry/sad that the daffodils that were about to bloom by my front porch are now encased in ice. *Sigh* I hope they recover.

I'll post again shortly with the challenge winner, and bright and early tomorrow we'll begin the next challenge theme:
FRUIT & FLOWERS

The Design Team is already sending me some gorgeous work using some the Victorian botanical prints I have, so you won't want to miss them.

Announcing Morning Moon Shop: Vintage Aprons & Bags Big and Small

A few of you may remember when I shared a picture of my new/old sewing machine, and joked that I enjoyed using it so much that I might open a shop to sell my handmade items? And I was mostly joking... weeelllllll, so now this is happening...
MorningMoonShop.etsy.com

So far I've listed several reversible vintage style aprons and some in retro 1940s 1950s style, all in pretty fabrics that I enjoy. This all started when I wanted vintage aprons in batiks and other fabrics I couldn't find, so well, guess it's my new hobby! Soon I plan to list bags as well, little magic bags and book bags and totes and more... and kitchen needfuls, etc. *Sigh* !
