This is my secondary blog and is designed as an archive of my handmade creations, past and present. I also add dates of fairs I'm attending, where I offer for sale my handmade pieces and also carefully sourced vintage goods. I hope you will enjoy taking a look, Niki x

Village Location

A new cushion made today, using a beautiful vintage hand embroidered panel of a Devon Village. 
I have used a vintage Sanderson floral chintz for the reverse, with ties  holding the opening closed. It has a new feather filled pad inside. Possibly coming with me to the Vintage & Handmade Fair Chipping Sodbury, if there is room in my car!

Bags of Goodies...

I've been keeping my head down this week working hard making lots of new items to take with me to the Vintage & Handmade Fair in Chipping Sodbury next Saturday. I'll update my blog next week with a sneaky peek. 
This little bag was made for my shop this week - Its a lovely vintage Sanderson floral linen, lined inside with a ditsy flannelette, and trimmed with vintage tassel braid and vintage button.

Back to the Sewing Machine...



I'm back at my sewing machine this week after a busy time making items for the recent fairs I've been attending. I'm restocking the shop with some 'old faithfuls'...and eased myself back into the flow with one of my gathered bags, this one made from antique French fabrics.
