Vintage Button Cards - For Sale

I have so many wonderful buttons!!

These Vintage buttons are hand sewn onto the cards. 



They are all Mother of Pearl.

I am selling them 3 cards (of same color) for $6.00


They  have been dyed pretty colors.

They are "Ball" buttons.  That means they are not flat like a regular Shank but are rounded from the bottom.



I have some in white too.

The top is not round, it is kind of flat with rounded edges.

Limited supplies on the Vintage Button Cards.

Heirloom Sewing Market



All set up and ready for market.

  Beauty Pins are getting hard to come by and were in great demand.  
We sold out of them within the first hour.

Being at the Heirloom Sewing Market is always inspiring.  I wish we also had a Retail portion to the show.  I know there are not shops in all areas of the country and many of you would welcome the opportunity to shop "in person".

For those of you near shops, visit your shop to see what they bought back from Market.  Market is about more than Merchandise, it's also about inspiration and ideas.

Your shop will come back with new ideas for you!

Have Fun.

Creative Needlework Market - Fun!

Welcome to "The Old Fashioned Baby" Booth at the Creative Needlework Market!

Wholesale - For the trade.  
Ask your shop keeper what they brought home!


It was held in Birmingham this past weekend.

I had all my goodies to sell, including vintage buttons.
I have so many buttons that are only available at market.

And I had special Market prices!

And garments displayed for inspiration.

This is the lacy version of my pattern Baby Rose.


I have a few pictures of other booths too.

Farmhouse Fabrics had a booth across from me so I got to see all the fun trims they brought with them to sell.

And the samples they brought to show the cute ways you can use them.

Seeing garment samples is one of the reasons you come to market.

It gives you ideas to bring home to your customers.

And the opportunity to purchase just the items you need to duplicate the samples.

One of my favorite booths is…of course... Capitol Imports.

Purveyor of fine lace and fabric.
Do I love lace?
You bet!

Capitol Imports always brings something to tempt me.

And at special prices not available for purchase any other way.

See more on my next post….
