It's been a long time since I last blogged. My family has moved and my daughter started kindergarten. Throw in a crazy lil' four year old boy, a "real day job," opening a space at our city's premiere antique mall and, well, I find myself here on December 8th, 201o feeling a bit chewed up!
I have managed to add a bunch of wonderful new items to my Etsy shop. One-of-a-kind Christmas stockings made from antique grain sacks and vintage french ticking. What I have named our "Oh-So-Useful Clothespin Bags," created from vintage 1940's clothespin bag wire hardware and newly made vintage french ticking bags. They hang anywhere to hold anything and look lovely doing it. Oh, I almost forgot! The aprons! Wonderful aprons made from grain sacks and another textile favorite of mine–german mangle cloth!
If I don't make it back to my blog before the holidays, to all those who support, love and believe in me: Happy Holidays!
Spread the Etta Bloom love...
