This heart pillow was made from a Vintage bedspread ❤️ In the 1960’s the company Bates of Maine designed these lush cut velvet bedspreads with a thick and soft pile, and had them manufactured in Japan. Today these bedspreads are highly sought after, and when I get one, I make heart shaped pillows out of it, the ultimate home accessory in the shape of love . Beautiful on a bed or sofa . Shop this and the rare blue/teal version this coming Sunday at @vineyardartisans 10-2 , Grange Hall , West Tisbury, Martha’s Vineyard

Cool 1950’s abstract motif on black barkcloth with bonsai trees . I am making this into a tote bag today! 🖤

“ These are too pretty to use “ , I often hear customers say when they see my potholder selection. My answer: They are 100% cotton, you can wash and dry them in the machine , and if they get a stain ? Almost all stains come out with an overnight soak in Oxyclean , and it won’t hurt the fabric! 🙌 If you want to beautify your kitchen or need a hostess gift :Voilá !!

Shown here, a nautical motif barkcloth from the 1940’s, “old stock” off the bolt . These days I am making scenic pillows as fast as I can as they have become some of SylvieBags best selling items !! See the latest collection at next Sundays @vineyardartisans Festival, Grange Hall West Tisbury 10-2
