Christmas Stockings

I made these stockings last year for one of my client's, three granddaughters. I think they turned out so cute. I am working on some this year too. I will work on getting them posted the beginning of next week.

Red and Black Bedding


My favorite color is red, so when I saw this fabric I immediately fell in love. This was really a fun job to do.

This is a close up of the duster.



















We loaded the bed with pillows. There are two queen shams, three boxed euro shams, one headboard pillow, two square pillows and a small kidney pillow and a boxed round pillow (not shown in this photo). 
All of the pillows are reversible so the client is able to change up the look. Here is a look at the revese look. The boxed round pillow is in this photo.
Here is a close-up of the square pillows. I love how these truned out.
This kidney pillow is really cute too!

Vintage Tablecloth - Updated

I found this vintage tablecloth and fell in love with it. I wanted to update the look a little bit so I added a 1" band of black and white check fabric and a 4" band of red fabric all the way arround. I love how it turned out!

Slipcovered

I made these slipcovers for a client who was staging a house for sale. We covered two older chairs that need to be re-upholstered. The fabric is a synthetic silk with a swirl embroidery pattern on it. I also made the small blue kidney pillows.

Vintage Tablecloth Redo

I made this quilt for a friend who is expecting a baby. I used a small vintage tablecloth for the center and banded it with a soft flannel around the way around. I used the same soft flannel on the back, put warm and natural in between the layers, and tied the quilt with a light yellow yarn that matched the yellow in the tablecloth. The finished size is 32" x 48".

Here is a view of the back.

Boxed Pillows

I love how these pillows turned out. They remind me of the 1950's.

They were made with a light yellow silk and a contrasting pom pom fringe. I placed one inch covered buttons in the middle of each pillow.

Shaped Table Runner

This table runner was a ton of work. There were 5 fabrics, 3 trims, and lots of hand work. All of the work was worth it as you can see, it turned out beautifully. The client was in love. The picture were taken on the table in my studio. 

Oh....and did I mention that it was reversible?
This is a close up view of the shaped end, on the silk side.
