Getting Started...A few items for the "nook"











These are samples of things I enjoy creating...some on my own, and some with the help of my talented husband, Bobby. These items are for sale at On the Square Antiques in Troy, or use your imagination to design something for yourself....we will be happy to create your design especially for you.
The slipcovered ottoman is extra large, and can be used as a coffee table in front of a sofa....it would look great with the "adapted" crewel work framed tray sitting on top. The tray features a removable glass inset to protect the handwork. Handles for the tray are actual antique spoons, hammered and bent to shape.
Three sweet reversible baby bibs are made from prewashed fabric scraps...fronts are cotton prints that reverse to quilted cotton. Velcro closures and added detail of bias edging.
Also from fabric remnants, a fun shoulder bag of brown and blue floral with self straps, lined with a contrast check. Bag features two interior pockets.
