Hi there and welcome to my shop. Here you will find old embroideries, vintage fabrics and sparkling remnants made into something pretty and practical once again.
I will be re-stocking slowly but surely in the coming months, so do keep coming back for a browse.
As I try to recycle where I can, your order will arrive wrapped in clean, recycled packaging from my hoard.
Thank you for visiting me at Folksy.

Embroidered crinoline ladies are like mermaids’ sirens to me. I am powerless to resist!

Full description

Crinoline lady vintage embroidery, toiletries, make up bag or storage pouch.

Unashamedly nostalgic and sentimental, the crinoline lady is a bit of an embroidery icon, and still the mainstay of charity shops.

This is a sweet, unsophisticated version, possibly sewn by a child. It makes into a very pretty purse or keepsakes bag.

The front has been stitched onto cotton to strengthen it.

The bag measures 22cm across

It measures 14 cm down

There is a purple zip opening of 22 cm

There is a hook to the RHS for twirling around your finger, or for hanging it up somewhere nice, and admiring it as a piece of craft work in its own right.

There is a blue and purple cotton floral lining

The back is made from washed recycled denim, to give it an edge and some body

There are some clusters of vintage mother of pearl buttons on the front

It is finished with my own embroidered name tag

F85

I like to reuse where possible. Your purse will arrive packaged in clean, recycled wrapping.

It will be posted out as Royal Mail 2nd class with certificate of posting. This takes about 3 days. Let me know if you need it sooner, and want an upgrade.
