Not technically vintage

...but I've been enjoying this site for more stitch inspiration and patterns. Very cute!

Was just looking...

at this lovely blog, and this post has a pic of some of these Vogart patterns, stitched and original. Just gorgeous!

Inspiration...I'd like to do something stitchy with this image.

Knocked my socks off!

I know this is a vintage focused site, but if you love stitching, check out the work of Benji Whalen. Incredible!
Here's one of his pieces "Endless Summer":


Okay, now back to the lambs and flower baskets.

Further proof that flowers in baskets are super fab, look at these gorgeous thrift shop table runners that Gigi recently found! The bottom one is my favourite. The second one looks to me like one of the Vogart pillowcases from the Hope Chest designs. Yay!

Chicken and Rooster Tea Towel

Further to this post, Colonial Stitcher has stitched up the very cute (yes, you know I love chickens!) on a gorgeous tea towel. She sells her work through Etsy - check out her other stitched creations here. (I was going to buy it, but I found her store about 30 minutes after I was told I had to get 4 new tyres for my car, and my bank account shrivelled up.) Anyway...

Yay! I love to see what people make with the patterns.
