Spring Goods for June!

Tonight I have a few offerings for you for that I hope you will like :)

DAISY PINCUSHION IS SOLD ~ THANK YOU!

My first offering is this flower pincushion.  It is made entirely from early and vintage fabric bits and pieces (except for the twine flower stem).  I always called these quilt paintings and they are one of my very favorite things to make.  This one measures 5 1/2" by 6".  The flower petals are different blue fabrics and there are different little stitches here and there.  Comes with a few old pins shown.

This is an original design and is signed by me.

BEAR IS SOLD ~ THANK YOU!

  Lastly I have a humble little bear.  With his shoe button eyes and simple stitched nose, and cockeyed ears, he really has a sweet humble look about him.

 Both his arms and legs are string-jointed.  He is made like an old style bear with long arms and hump back.  Early fabric is tied around his neck.  Slightly weighted and sits 9" tall.

An original design and is signed.

Strawberry Seeds Pincushion Set ~ This is Sold

This pincushion is made to look like a vintage seed pack of Strawberries.  I LOVED making this.  I have a few others started (different ones, not strawberries) and would have had those to offer also if I didn't get myself in a poison ivy patch gardening!!  They will be coming soon on my website ;)

Stitched on a vintage piece of fabric are two strawberries made from the prettiest early red calicos.  Their caps are also old calico but not early, probably from around the 1930's.

 "Strawberry" and "Everbearing" lettering is hand-stitched to look like an old font. 

It is backed by a fun vintage quilt piece.  Lightly stained and filled with cleaned sawdust, it measures 6" by 5".

Also included is an old pin that I covered with vintage red velvet to look like a strawberry (green wool cap).  It's 4" long.

This is a Rabbit Hill Primitives copyright design and will be signed and dated.

 $42.00 includes priority mail shipping.
This is SOLD ~ thank you!

Thanks for visiting and happy summer!!

~~ China Doll in Spring Garden ~ ~ SOLD ~~

This piece is inspired by a love of old quilts, dolls and flowers all rolled into one.  I've always wanted to make a quilt but have no patience for making them...precision is not my strong point, I'm more of a freehand kind of girl!

 

She is a little china head doll walking through her spring garden.  

 This folky piece is primitively done and made from lots of old and early pieces appliquéd on to an old feed sack...........like a cloth painting.  

 

It is backed by a nice piece of old blue homespun.  I've sewn a sleeve on the back for hanging using a dowel rod or a sturdy twig would be nice.

  

 It measures 6" wide by slightly over 8" tall. 

  

There are many many stitches in this primitive piece.  Tattered and torn in some places because of the age of the fabric.  Please click on the photos to enlarge for a much better look.

 

This is an original and one of a kind piece made with lots of love.  It will be signed and dated
