Vintage Grainsack Pillows

I think my favorites are the heavy duty ones, like these Bemis Sacks. I have several that are dated - most were used in the 1930s and 1940s. These are heavy, nubby, just a wonderful texture and will last another 80 years. I use them all around my house, inside and out - on wicker and my leather sofas too. I have some to share listed in my shop - thanks for stopping by and have a lovely weekend!!

Grainsack Pillows

I crafted these pillows with reproduction grainsacks - with the reproductions, you get the best of both worlds....easy care and vintage graphics. I have been sewing away and have them piled so high on the dining table that Mr. CatNap complained about not being able to see out the windows! LOL!!!

Thanks for stopping by and have a lovely weekend!!

For these and more pillows, check out my shop.

And if you are wondering about the quilt, it is an etsy find. A little old lady made it with her husband's shirts after he passed away, she could not part with them, so she stitched up a quilt top, she then passed on and a quilter purchased the top and quilted it and now it is mine.

Debbie's Flowers

My friend Debbie must have more than just a green thumb - she grows the most gorgeous flowers. I am so jealous. I kind of went overboard with her pictures, but it was hard to get it down to just a few! Hope you enjoy these lovelies...
