I AM IN THE PROCESS OF MOVING ITEMS FROM THIS SHOP TO MY OTHER FOLKSY SHOP 'Lynwoodcrafts' where they will be waiting for you to view them! All my items now feature upcycled, recycled, repurposed or gifted materials and there is no longer any distinction between the two shops!

I decided to use silk paints on some small pieces of vintage lace. I laid a piece of plain vintage sheeting over my table top and applied the paint to the lace on top of the fabric. The result was randomly painted background fabric, exactly matching the painted lace in colour palette The 'pages' were cut from vintage flannelette sheeting.

Full description

A softly coloured, hand-painted, needle book, entirely hand-stitched from vintage textiles and featuring a portion of hand painted, vintage lace.

A panel of hand painted lace was hand stitched to the cover - cut from a portion of vintage sheeting painted to match the lace. The cover has been lightly quilted using vintage pale blue cotton thread to provide rows of quilting stitches, on either side of the lace panel and to add texture to the back of the cover and the 'spine' of the book. The thread used, had, at some stage in its former life, been stored in light - giving a lovely shaded effect which compliments the painted fabric beautifully. The cover is finished by an edging of blanket stitch in same pale blue thread.

The needle book is lined in a cream vintage fabric. Two pieces of vintage soft flannelette are folded and securely stitched in place, to provide four 'pages' for your needles and pins. The needle case closes by tying cords, stitched from very narrow, vintage bias binding - also handpainted to match.

Height - 11 cm approx

(Pins not included)
