Sewist, knitter, thrifter, and vintage lover.
My #perennialblouse is done!
Planning on another once I wear this one a few times, in the fabric off to the left. It's a J crew dress, love the fabric but not the shape.

Just starting to cut out my #perrennialblouse out of some very old novelty print cotton I thrifted. At this point it's giving me Dirndl vibes. Was hoping for more Big Top vibes. We will see. 🤞

Editing these overalls and trying a barrel leg on them. Also toying with the idea of knee patches.

Thanks @threadcampaign.bsky.social for the inspiration.
Made myself a quilted doublet with side ties from scraps from my #swsruecoat, if only I had enough left I could make a pair of pants for a 3 piece cozy time suit!
Self drafted it and sewed it up in small sessions this weekend.

New art piece acquired today. Can't wait to pop it on the wall.

Workin' on a self drafted doublet vest using scraps from my #swsruecoat. Inspired by @threadcampaign.bsky.social.

Kids are back at school and taking some time to just sit in silence and knit up a cover for this hot water bottle I thrifted.

My #Flowerfolkmittens are off the needles and freshly blocked, just in time for our first (possible) snowfall of the season.
Found this free pattern on Ravery and used partial skeins of Jamiesons from my stash.

Into post! I'm Jeanne, pronounced like jean, which is also my favorite thing to sew. I'm also a knitter, a mother of two, and have a booth at my local Antique Mall. I love thrifting, and reusing, but sometimes splurge on new fabrics too, especially denim.📷knotted up hoodie is courtesy of my kid.

I love sourcing vintage goods! Deciding which to keep and which to sell in the booth. Or do I keep both?

Workin' on a pair of scrappy mittens. 🧶🪢
Pattern is "Flowerfest Mittens" and I'm using Jamiesons partials from previous projects.

Here's another make I never shared. A #swimalongcrossbody bag made using quilt scraps from the rainbow quilt coats I made my boys.
Worn with my #briarpants and a vintage crew neck.
Honestly, I haven't worn this bag much as it doesn't pay the best on my chest.

Oh, hello there.
Here's a thing I made and never shared on the gram.
#ripplecroptop knit up in scrap yarn.
Knit size 2xl, which is a size up for me. Wanted a more boxy silhouette.
Was fun to knit but annoying to weave in those ends.
