I Have An Angel

One day recently, out of the blue, I received an email from a fellow Etsyian, Chakra Pennywhistle. She had seen my Etsy listing for the zipper pouches I made from a Massachusetts tea towel and repurposed denim jeans. She makes Custom Circle the Date Patches using the calendar part of vintage tea towels. She asked me if I would like to have some of the cut towels she has leftover from making the patches. Wow! She was so generous and sent me an overstuffed box of wonderful patterns and designs. I started right in on making zipper pouches with the beautiful vintage tea towels. I can't thank her enough, she's an angel for offering them to me.

Oh my! I knew that you would use them and make them into functional pieces of art! I love the cuts of each pouch:)

You are the angel. You inspire daily and I am so glad that we are a part of this indie handmade community together:)

Thanks for making my sewing room a bit more organized too ;)

Most of the materials I use are repurposed packaging and I love that I have easy access to them and my friends and family save all their bags and boxes for me! My mom brings me old clothes and I use my daughter's outgrown clothes.

But every once in a while I go to my shop and someone has pushed a lost glove or a bag of buttons through the mail slot. I met a woman at the farmers market once who brought me a lot of ribbon. And I always appreciate how thoughtful people are! Their gifts make my work so much more. Your box of goodness was so so special! Thank you Rikkianne!
