Stitching and Creating

I love stitching, embroidery and sewing.  I have been making prayer flags for many years.  I took those stitches and created snippets and up cycled  clothes. 
Sail On

This is created on ticking and the back is from a vintage chenille quilt. I call this one “Sail On”. The waves are painted vintage linen lace. 


This is the outfit I upcycled for Lorri Scott’s upcycled clothing contest, Wayward Threads @ lasfibers. The jacket is a sweet coat. The shirt is a baby dress. 

                                                           This sweet baby dress has a quilted heart pocket. 
                                                  These strips of linen are filled with images of faith, joy and fun



This old jacket was upcycled with vintage linens.  I made a grain sack purse with ticking to complete the ensemble 


                                                                             Vintage linens and ticking!


                                          I included a heart on the skirt surrounded by pieces of a 1800’s quilt

                                                  What have you been working on during this eventful time?
