~ Coming Soon...Little Sparrow Pinkeep Club ~

Hello to all my special friends.

Valentine's Day is now only four weeks away!

I've gathered together a few RED 

antiques from the Studio....

This is probably the sweetest Pine Needle 

sewing box I own....perfect for a small handwork project.

And for the splash of red, what better than a 

old red sock darner, and little red oil can!

If you have these items in your sewing room stash, you 

can easily add a splash of your favorite color 

to add some zing!  

I used a can of high gloss red spray paint.

~ Studio News ~

I had a really busy week, which I absolutely LOVE,

and getting caught up is a great way to end the week !

Orders are ALL filled, emails answered, after spending 

much time at the printers, I'm happy to have my

purchase order to my new distributor Yarn Tree all boxed

up and is shipping today....yeah!

***

I'm really excited about some fabric that I purchased....

I've been on a search for this kind of fabric, and 

finally found some locally.....it's referred

to as "ticking".

 Several great ideas in store for this fabric!

The heart & hand...is an old bottle opener!

I absolutely love picking names for things....to the point of

driving myself nearly crazy!

And that is how it was while debating on the name for

Scattered Seed Samplers.  

The brain chatter was 24/7 with a endless list of names,

which finally did get narrowed down to my 

two favorites ~

~ Scattered Seed Samplers

~ Little Sparrow Samplers

I STILL love them both, and combined with my love 

for pinkeeps, I now have the perfect name for

the new addition coming soon ~

~ Little Sparrow Pinkeep Club ~

I've selected three lovely items that will be going on the 

Ebay Auction Block later tonight.....

~ Ultimate PUNCH NEEDLE DREAM !! ~

The inside of the lid is a unique pincushion!

~ Red baked enamel sewing tin; c. 1940 ~

Wonderful removable thread tray!!

The bottom is roomy enough to hold punch needle tools,

like scissors, Ultra Punch Needle etc.

These tins were once used as darning tins, but what a 

great new use in our day and age!

This exact tin is featured in this collector's guide....

~ Sewing Tools & Trinkets ~

~ page 84....at the very bottom with the check mark ~

This is a nice size tin that measures 8" in diameter.

Item number two....

~ Magnetic Cat needle minder ~

This cat is a hard to find discontinued needle minder from

several years ago.

In excellent condition!!

***

Item number three....

~ Antique Metal Pinkeep ~

~ Nice old pinkeep ~

 Makers mark stamped on the bottom,

~ THE LOUISE ECONOMY ~

These are the three sewing items I will be listing later tonight as 

seven days auctions in my Ebay Shop.  If interested please

~ Weekend Soul Food ~

Behold the fowls of the air;

for they sow not, neither do they reap,

nor gather into barns; yet your 

heavenly Father feedeth them.  

Are ye not much better than they?

~ Matthew 6:26...KJV ~

Have a lovely weekend my friends.

I'll be watching the Packers and working on designing

my next handwork pattern.

Many Blessing,
