BIG Shop Update!

Vintage Sheets Available, originally uploaded by jenib320.
I'm excited to finally be updating and working on the shop again! It has been a while since I've been able to update, but I've still be thrifting so there are lots of new sheets! I'll be adding in some pillowcases later today as well!


Vintage Sheet Wreath Kits, originally uploaded by jenib320.
After such a great response to the Vintage Wrapped Wreath Kits, I knew that I needed to make more! For my new readers (Hi!), these kits are made to accompany my tutorial for a Vintage Wrapped Wreath. Since I'm limited by the number of hems I have, I instead cut 2"x46" strips that can then be ironed in half to use just the same as the hems. This also allows for a more controlled palette! I had a lot of fun choosing sheets for these kits and each kit has a rainbow of colors!

This is the delicious stack that was cut up late into the night to make the kits! I think these prints will make some beautiful wreaths!

Each kit has 12 2"x46" strips! Another advantage to using the strips instead of the hems is I can ship them out easier/cheaper! They're not nearly as bulky or heavy as the hems. You also have the option of further cutting your 2" strips in half, if you'd like the raw edges to show and get two wreaths out of one kit! Thankfully I cut enough fabric for plenty of kits, but once they're gone it will probably be a month or two before I make any more, my hands are all blistered from the cutting! ;) I'm listing them 2 at a time, so if you don't see any listed, check back in a bit and I should have them relisted!

In addition to Wreath Kits, I made up a whole bunch of Rainbow Scrap Packs! A great way to get your vintage sheet collection started and perfect for fun patchwork projects!

Hope you all have a wonderful, springy day! Thanks for visiting and checking out the shop too! :)

What other types of kits/precuts/bundles would you be interested in seeing in the shop?

  11. Great sheets! I think either layer cakes or charm packs would be great! It depends on the print I think. Just found your blog from Little Miss Shabby and I love it - you have another new follower!

  12. I love your blog and you're lovely Dream On quilt. I'd love to see more yardage for pillowcases. I'm seriously deprived of good vintage sheet finds and I really want to dec out my family's pillows with vintage sheet pillow cases. So could you consider selling 1 yard pieces to make them?
