{treasures}


Above is a collage my daughter made for her wall featuring photos of them eating in different countries. I LOVE it!
I would never be able to hang a group of pictures like these in a straight line.

Some crazy stocking I made for them a few years ago. Her home is beautiful! Maybe one day she will send me pics and allow me to post them.

 All are made from vintage fabrics, bits and pieces of fabric from my grandmother and mother.

Wool Art


Made by me. Made from recycled European wool, all hand stitched. This crazy quilt was made to be a sofa throw. And I can't tell you how well this works, how comfy and cozy this is. Backing is also vintage wool. Recycling is a big thing for me. I love taking a thing that has been discarded and make it into something uses, practical, and artful.


The hours this takes are more than I want to count or like to remember. I have made several, sold five.


Generous size, enough to keep you well covered. A work of art hanging on a wall, or thrown over a chair or sofa.
$385.00 + $12.00 Shipping

Recycling

My father was  big into recycling even before it was the GREEN thing to do. Maybe this is the reason I have such a hard time throwing anything out? I made this 'throw' or 'wall art' from old clothes and old ties from Germany that had been discarded.

I love 'CRAZY QUILTS'...this is a version of a crazy quilt. All silk.
