I had forgotten that I had this nice bark cloth linen type drapery panel!
Was digging though my vintage fabric tub and saw it!
Decided to pull it out and deconstruct it.
Was a very nice custom made piece.
It is so very Americana! A toile type.
I am not sure of the date on the fabric.
Have not been able to find any like it online.
The salvage was trimmed just enough so I CANNOT see maker. Darn.
Very high end quality fabric.
Backing/lining aged to perfection for some other projects...stitchery maybe.;-)
I decided to make a simple runner for the table with it.
Really love it!
Also a simple flanged pilla cover for DH's Great Granny Peden's sewing rocker.
Looked great for the July 4th celebration!
I leave my Americana up for the summer so they fit right in!
Fireplace all flagged up..;)
Found those old blue and white doilies and they worked!
Even have a red, white and blue stain glass rooster!
Here is where I hung up the flag stitchery quilt.
Yes that is a white pic frame with kids pic.;-)
I need to paint it black!
I need to go buy more paint.. my can is almost empty!!
Lord No!! Can't have that!! ;-)
Thanks for stopping by!
That looks like some pretty awesome vintage fabric. It's nice to keep your Americana look up for the whole summer.
ReplyDeletei love your decorating..love it...lord no, don't let that black paint can run out....
ReplyDeleteLove what all you did with the drapery panel! I need to start redecorating for the different seasons and holidays. I just never take the time.
ReplyDeleteIt all looks so gorgeous. Can't wait to get more organized around here, so that I can get back to decorating. Maybe by Christmas--fingers crossed!!!! I think I may have to add your flags to my to do list. It is very cute.
ReplyDeleteDid you get the e-newsletter from Bella's. It talks about the Smithfield quilt show. Lots of classes to chose from.
Hope you are staying cool. L,A-
Wow Lola, your Americana theme is so beautiful! I love your table runner and the chair pillow, what perfect use of your pretty fabric!
ReplyDeleteEverything is so charming - I love the rocker. I went to high school in Alaska with a Bill Peden (graduated 1964)- I think he lives in San Francisco now - any relation? Or just a coincidence.
ReplyDeleteYou have a real treasure there Lola. Everything looks amazing! Ann :-)
ReplyDeleteFantastic use of the vintage fabric! Thinking about using some vintage fabric on the barstools if it is sturdy enough.
ReplyDeleteHi Lola,
ReplyDeleteThe table runner turned out so pretty. I think that is a wonderful idea to have the Americana theme through the summer, so very summery!
