I’m sorry this is more tedious than the one-click purchase option on other upscale sites. This is more like a yard sale–bargain prices, changing inventory, and limited quantities.  You might be surprised at some of the unique items I have in my stash/hoard/collection!***
Connie Palmer recently made a christening gown with Swiss organdy diamond shaped medallions inserted in the skirt. The medallions were embroidered, white on white, and the effect was spectacular. Each 4-5″ x 12″ strip should render two 4″ x 5- 6″ medallions. These are left over cuts from making class kits.

Like so many who sew, I love to garden. But I was too busy gardening to make up any of these neat projects.
She looks a lot like Mildred Turner who hasn’t written any heirloom sewing books lately. Do you think she has moved on to gardening?  Mimi keeps goats up there on her mountain, so maybe she’s gone green! Mildred, is that you?
