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 re-stock slowly but surely, 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.

Back in the day when Vintage Fairs were still allowed! I always had a collection of old fabric patchwork squares, buttons and trimmings as well as vintage clothes on my stall. I loved it that a customer could dip in and buy tiny pieces from me to maybe just line a purse say, or finish off a special little project. This pack is my way of recreating that feeling, until we can all go and visit outside events again.

Full description

I have put together a little collection from my store of vintage haberdashery to help you get creative. Cotton fat quarters, bits of ribbon braid and lace, as well as fragments of vintage hand embroidered flowers should get you started. Perfect if you are learning to sew, teaching some sewing at home, or you would like to get some upcycling ideas.These little embellishments will make your work that bit special, some may be a little faded or old, but all will add a sprinkling of history to whatever you decide to create. This would make a nice gift for someone stuck at home right now with itchy fingers, for anyone who enjoys recycling, or as a surprise gift to cheer someone up.

Inside your pack you will find;

4 x fat quarters (fabric squares approx 50 cm by 50 cm)

15 little patchwork cotton squares

10 vintage embroidery patchwork squares

5 pink embroidered flowers for gluing or stitching on

A few buttons, 3 vintage doilies and 2 x vintage iron on transfers

2 mtrs cream polyester satin ribbon and navy ric rac braid.

75 cm of woven gold braid 65 cm of vintage white cotton lace and a piece of wide, white embroidery anglaise approx 2 mtrs.

Have fun!

I like to recycle. Your pack will be posted out wrapped in clean, recycled packaging, and sent by Royal Mail 2nd class.
