| A lovely lady brought in some pretty vintage linen's to my shop a couple of weeks ago, that had all belonged to her mother. She asked me to use them in some of my crafts. |
 |
| There was a gorgeous set of napkins which had been obviously loved and enjoyed over the years as they had been repaired several times. I salvaged the good bits and used the beautiful hand stitched embroidered details to decorate these French linen lavender-filled hearts. |
 |
| A hanging loop and glass bead finished each one. |
 |
| Another heart made from C19th French linen with monogram. |

I also made a pretty shoulder bag today. I used a vintage fabric printed with lilac blooms.
Lined inside with French linen. It fastens with a Deco button and fabric loop.

| A vintage costume brooch completes the picture! |
