White Rabbit and Vintage Linen
I loved Maureens new rabbit pattern from Sweet Meadows Farm, he's a really well fed little chap. I bought the pattern and it arrived really quickly, Thank you Maureen, and I got started.
I've had a piece of vintage wool flannel for a long time. I think it would have been be used to make warm underclothes in times gone by. Perfect for a White Rabbit.
She's got pearls for eyes and a pretty lace shawl pinned with a rose. Not like Maureen's picture on her pattern but I do think she's sweet.
A friend very kindly gave me some lovely pieces of vintage linens and doilies. I decided to use them to create lovely gifts for ladies who stitch. What a lovely way to spend a rainy Sunday!!
This little set is made from linen place mats. I started with a needle case......
added a little heart pin cushion..........
then to complete the set, a pretty sewing roll with pockets inside.
I've added lace from vintage handkerchiefs and some hand embroidery .
I'll be listing them in my Etsy shop later.
I'm popping across to post on Mouse House Tales about my felt making course. I'll be posting on my progress in an on-line diary, so join me on my felt making journey.
Have a wonderful week my blog friends, keep warm!! dry!! cool!! wherever in the world you are.

Your work is always always so very beautiful. I would trade that gorgeous white rabbit with her pearly eyes any day for the real one that's been digging under a fence to get into our flower garden - just thank God it is very large!
Your little recycled linens and lace have made sweet little sewing keepers and I love that roll also not to mention the dear little heart.
Sending some Valentine's love to you and thanks for your very kind comment dear Angela,

Have a great weekend,

I'm very fond of needle cases...and the 'accessories' just complete it all.
