Vintage Embroidery, Smocking and Lace

Vintage Pillows

I am addicted to vintage pillows and have an extensive collection.  

I have some that date back to the 1800's and some as recent as the 1950's.

I just found the big fluffy round one.  It's so big and cushy.

I absolutely LOVE it!

I adore vintage embroidery........  and the smocking is to die for.  If that's not enough.....  it has an outer row of  3 inch lace all the way around.

Quite scrumptious!

I love Southern Belle's.
I have dresser scarves, pillows, sheets and pillow cases with the cutest embroidered Southern Belle's.  I made the Southern Belle pillow from an old damaged pillow case.  There was only one....  not a pair....  so this seemed the best way to salvage the embroidery.
I love it.

Wishing all you lovelies a wonderful week!
