Junquey Gal: You be mine

Junquey Gal: You be mine

You be mine

I am seriously in love with this stack of vintage pretties.  My favorite is this quaint hankie!!

 Flea market find. All mine.  For - drum roll - $10!  An entire Marshall's shopping bag full. Luckily my partner in crime has eagle eyes for boxes of neglected old stuff.  Stay tuned to see what they become later!!

Bucket List!

I can't expression enough what an honor it was to be chosen to participate in the 2015 Country Living Fair in Columbus, OH!!I am still thinking it all through

 to see what worked and what didn't. Here are some pretty pictures of my space and the venue. It is an unbelievable event!!

Somerset Studios - wahooo my Poe Apron on their webpage!

What day is it??

Not sure, it is just a blur. Sew, buy supplies to finish sewing projects, sew, repeat.  It is less than a month until the Columbus Country Living Fair .  O M G.  Me.  Pinch me again, right??  Just a little tease of the clutch/wristlets that I have been making. 101 of them to be exact!  Now I am on aprons... photos tomorrow!!

Shades of red, white & blue...

From my studio, lots of toile, texture, linen, lace... All recreated into pretty but functional purses & totes. I can barely see my dressform, Viola!  If you see something that interests you, just leave a comment.  Thanks for stopping!

Exciting news X 2!

Okay, I have almost finished pinching myself!  First the super-duper news that I hinted about previously... drum roll please...

This Junquey Gal, and an entourage of family and friends, is heading to Columbus, Ohio this September because I have been selected to be a VENDOR at the Country Living Fair

I know!

Thrilled, honored, scared, intimidated... yep.  And so busy - or shall I say sew busy??  Here's a little peek at what is on the work table.  As soon as this week's round of kid's softball games, chorus and honor programs is all over...

And as if that isn't the absolute best news ever, I found out today that I will have a purse and apron in the September/October issue of Somerset Studio Magazine .  I can't wait to be able to share more info about it.  I am not 100% how they are being featured - both are literary inspirations and could fit several different calls they had reently.

I know!
