I never take it for granted...

The freedom we have to enjoy what we love to do, including searching high and low for fun Vintage and Antiques, is due, in large part, to the sacrifice of those who paid the ultimate price to preserve our freedom, and those who protected us here at home.

I'm showcasing a few red white and blue items available in my booth at Forestwood.

Forestwood will be open on Memorial Day, so I hope you'll stop by!

Some of our more interesting finds!

These are French fruit drying racks, and displayed either as a single, or in a group, the texture, surface and shape make them very architectural and interesting!

Priced at $225 each, these are available in our booth at @bennyjackantiquesonriverfront

Every textile tells a story! So here's my story..

Every textile tells a story!

So here's my story....

My dear friend, Heidi Henricks, owner of @chaparral_needlework has been a huge fan and advocate of my Vintage Textiles for Needlepoint, finishing since I began selling them.

One of our first collaborations was her penguin ornament series, and she selected four different textiles to finish the four different penguin canvases. This plaid textile was one of the designs she selected.

Fast forward to May 2023, and I found an entire dress made from the same Feed Sack cloth. Swipe for my video explanation. Such a fun find!

And this dress really tells the story of American textiles, and how they were utilized leading up to, and during the Depression.

My favorite part of the story is that it's not over!

As the needlepoint community continues to embrace finishing projects with these beautiful Antique and Vintage Textiles, the story goes on and on!

You can shop my latest textile finds by clicking on the link in my bio.

If you are a Needlepoint, shop owner, I would love to book a Textile truck show with you!
