For all of you etsy, craft, sewing, lovers........my etsy shop has several items in it!! I am so excited! I will still be listing on eBay, but also will be using etsy. Check it out at both places!

Etsy ... Coming Soon

Hello all! I hope you are enjoying your day! I will be moving all of my craft related items to my etsy site soon. I am in the process of rearranging stock, etc. If you do not find anything you are looking for on my eBay site, then please check my Etsy Shop. There is a link to etsy from this webpage. My prices on etsy will be just as competitive as they are on eBay. Thanks, everyone!

Fabric & Lace

Sorry - no photos today. Wanted to let anyone who was interested know that I will be listing more fabric and other sewing notions: lace, rickrack, bias, needles, embroidery, knitting, crochet, blanket materials, quilting -- all for the next few weeks. I have some vintage hats up for sale this week. Also a millinery hat mold / block.

Vintage Sewing Fabric: from Upholstery to Quilting to Feedsack

 Fabric has a way of wheedling into your heart and staying.At least it does that for me. lol  - My slowly growing fascination for vintage fabrics is too addicting! I simply cannot help myself. Any rate, take a look; perhaps it will spark interest with you, too.
