This Old House: Patterns

I noticed how many patterns I had in my living room, and I just love the little details and how so many seemingly different patterns can look so good together. What patterns are popping up around your place?

Vintage Inspired: i-Vintage Tech Gift

Nerd alert! I lost my phone last week, and since my old one was getting pretty shabby, I opted for the ubiquitous iphone. Yes I am now living the i-life. At the store, the case selection was grim, so I came home and immediately started a search for vintage inspired/adorable iphone cases.

These would be great gifts for the i-lover in your life, but how to choose? From London floral to Paris unmentionables, soft leather, hard bamboo and repurposed vintage fabrics, choices abound!

Repurposed Vintage Fabrics, Yay!

Vintage Inspired: Pillow People

I found this vintage pattern today and all I can say is, wow. I have been perusing the patterns lately, whenever I am out looking for things for the shop, because there is something so lovely about sewing your own clothing/home decor. I have WAY too many patterns already, as my grandma had an entire closet filing cabinet system dedicated to them that I inherited, but I simply can't get enough. I can see these pillows being sewn with vintage fabrics and sold in the shop. As the pattern states, "Simple-to Make playmate pillows to delight any child. Girl has bows in hair; boy has bow tie. Pup has floppy ears with contrast facings; ribbon bow. Puss has collar and ribbon tie."

They also remind me of these from my childhood, and hey, is that a tea party they are crashing?
