My kitchen table at the Pop up Shop

a table full of loveliness

cushions, lavender hearts, purses, mini bunting

I took this photo at my Pop up Shop in July. It was hard to ‘style’ it nicely because there is so much and because the lavender hearts are in cellophane bags and they slip and slide all over the place so I just plonked it attractively  on the table and hoped for the best.  There is a selection of all of these at my  on line shop

cushions, lavender hearts, pin cushion hearts, mini bunting, purses. All made from the most beautiful vintage fabric.

Here is one of a few new vintage fabric pin cushions that I’ve made this week.A lot of the fabric was hand printed in America in the forties and the colours and prints are just astonishingly beautiful. I’ve sewn my pink ‘Lots of Love’ labels on them all.

They are generally two or three meters in length and are lovely for a child’s bedroom.

Too Lovely

Mini Vintage Bunting

My vintage bunting can be used in the garden on a dry day, though they are few and far between at the moment. These florals were hand printed in the USA in the thirties.

I’ve been making vintage bunting for many years and now I also make vintage patchwork bunting and mini vintage bunting (pictured).

My bunting isn’t the sort which is used to decorate large venues, marquees or streets. I source my fabric from all over the world. Some of it was handmade in the thirties and forties. Some is hand dyed. The sort of colours and patterns I like weren’t too difficult to get a few years ago, now unfortunately it’s like gold dust so every little piece is precious. I add small pieces of gingham, polka dots and muslin and make it by the meter. Each little piece is like a jewel and I cut them all differently and I also dye some myself so that each string of bunting is a beautifully precious little collection of quality vintage fabric in glorious ice cream colours.
