This Week's Makes...

As well as filling my shop full of handmade bunting ready for the Diamond Jubilee celebrations in Shepton Mallet tomorrow, I have also made a pair of cushions. 

I used vintage hand embroidery and a late 40's/ early 50's floral fabric.

Inside are plump feather filled pads.

I also covered a pair of shoe stretchers and have plans to do more for the Cotswold's Vintage Fair in August.
These sold today.

Have a lovely Jubilee weekend,

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.
