new pocket notebooks

the advantages of being a self-professed pack rat is never running out of supplies. i love sewing with collected ephemera, in this case old library cards. they make for a nice contrast... the typed word, stamped dates and the handwritten signatures. pocket notebooks coming soon to etsy.

postcard fashions*

here is a set of vintage french postcards i found. they illustrate folk costumes of regional french provinces. they are printed in black + possibly gray ink, with hand painted colorization.
