SEW LOVELY !


SOMETIMES YOU NEED A LITTLE VISION AND
IMAGINATION TO BRING THAT BEAUTY OUT!
WHEN EVER I GO THRIFTING NOW I TRY
TO LOOK AT THE PIECES AS WHAT
ELSE COULD THEY BE.

I'VE SEEN OTHER REDO'S LIKE THE ONE
I JUST DID AND I HAVE LOVED ALL OF
THEM. SO I KNEW I HAD TO MAKE
ONE MY VERY OWN.

SO WHEN I FOUND THIS AT AN ESTATE SALE
I KNEW IT WAS COMING HOME WITH ME.
AN OLD SEWING MACHINE BASE.





AND HERE IS MY FINISHED PIECE 
I HOPE YOU LIKE IT!





















I REALLY ENJOYED DOING THIS PIECE, 
IT WAS FUN DOING SOMETHING OUT OF THE
ORDINARY. THE TOP OF THE PIECE IS
ACTUALLY FROM A COFFEE TABLE I FOUND AT
THE TRIFT STORE I TOOK THE TABLE 
APART AND JUST RESTORED THE TOP OF THE 
PIECE. HERE IS A BEFORE SHOT OF THE
TABLE TOP I USED...

My new passion: sewing patchwork pillows

 
This post is a shameful plug of my recent sewing bonanza, which has resulted in a wonderfully eclectic collection of patchwork cushion covers which I am now selling online as well as at the Christmas fair I am taking part in soon. I have turned into a right pillow making factory since I got my new sewing machine and I love it! Finally knowing what to do with my scrap pieces of fabric that I don't want to throw out, I just sew them all together into unique combinations. I also use vintage linens and all kinds of upholstery and dress making fabrics I come across on my travels. If anything, they will provide excellent insulation for our home in the coming winter months! ;-)

Which one do you like best?






 








I am selling them for £25 ($40) each excl insert, with free shipping to the UK. Happy to ship internationally as well - just drop me an email on ninasapartment at gmail.com. Makes a perfect handmade Christmas present! I am open to make custom pillow covers, so if you're looking for a specific colour scheme just let me know.

Here's where to find color inspiration and pain information. Learn about the color wheel, how to combine colors, color selection, and how they affect mood. Your bathroom is your sanctuary, your refuge from the chaos of this world. Or at least that is how to choose the paint color for the bathroom should be. The creation of this type of spa-like retreat starts with choosing the color of paint for the bathroom. Neutrals such as cream, beige and dark gray, have long been popular color choices for the bathroom because they wear well and are easily integrated into any design scheme.
