Creating Fabric Art

Vintage fabrics and needle crafting go hand in hand. When I find a quilt, fabric or vintage clothing my mind thinks “what can I do with that?”.  

I started marking prayer flags after a master quilter started teaching us to make prayer flags.

I was addicted to creating these miniature pieces of art.

I was drawn to these sweet baby dressess.  I started embroidering and creating a memory dress.

I use pictures on fabric paper, vintage fabrics, laces and embrodiery threads.

Sweet little babies!

I display these by vintage hangers.

Marian @ Miss Mustard Seed did a blog post on Framing a Baby Dress.  I followed her lead and framed my dress.  

Broches and pins are fun to make as well.  They add a beautiful texture to outfits and art.

I have found that jackets are inspirational to stich.  Slow stiching is so calming to my mind.

I will continue on my fabric journey.  "Sail On " was created on a vintage chenille quilt with laces and seed sack fabrics.
