This theme had so many images and thoughts that came to mind could have branched out in so many differnt directions..I could have posted 100's of pics but selected a few of my favorites...Below is the old iron stone bowl and pinkeep I bought at the antique mall Sunday.I don't sew much but adore old pinkeeps and sewing items.I can sew just not my favorite past time...
Beeswax pinkeep...
Love the old school girl stitcheries...So valued a craft in days gone by...
My old strawberry emery used to keep needles sharp...
Well loved antique baby bib all handstitched...
Our beloved American Flag..Stitched with pride,hope,faith and love....
We all know my love for old images.Love the pics of children with Toys..Some store bought treasures..Some stitched by momma's hands from the scrap basket but all so appreciated in early days...
Don't forget you can always click my images and zoom in for a closer look....
Gotta include the wonderful old Topsy Turvy doll....So loved by plantation children and still loved today....
This is the reason I started blogging to meet so many kindred spirits stitched together with the common thread of Love.Hope you enjoyed my chain.Now visit our host Misi http://1890gablehousemusings.blogspot.com/2011/01/january-18th-display-theme-sewn-or.html and visit the other people who joined in today.Warmest Blessings!~Amy
