My husband and I have been working on different projects with the same end goal. He is working on setting up our new site;
Vintagethreads.com is still a work in process. I have been making
head wraps and
yoyos for mini wall quilts that will be framed and for sale at the new store. Yes, those vintage yoyos are scattered in with new yoyos to make these mini quilts so some of the fabrics are current, a few are up to 50 years old, and a touch are close to 100. I doubt anyone besides me and the lady who gave the fabric to me will know which is which, but it is fun all the same to share vintage surprises.
If you get a chance, check out the new site; it is still a work in progress so not much works there, but there is a poll. I would love to see what everyone's favorite fiber art form is. This may help decided what type of stuff is carried in the store that will be on this site in the coming weeks.
If it feels like I have not been posting as much I haven't because I am working like crazy getting things made for the store opening.
Thanks for all your input

ReplyDeleteWow these are gorgeous! I can't wait till your shop is ready! I think you'll do very well. Have a great day!
ReplyDeleteGood luck with your new site. Those yo-yo's are lucious. My very first sewing project, taught to me by my grandmother, was making yo-yo's. She would have me sit and sew yo-yo's so she could watch General Hospital. It's funny how seeing all those yo-yo's brought back that memory.
