Vintage Mens Handkerchief Table Runner

Gorgeous style, no repro's here! (Eat your heart out, Pottery Barn) This lovely table runner is sewn from squares of recycled vintage mens handkerchiefs. They're machine sewn together, and tied quilt-style, with assorted matching colors of embroidery thread. The result is a fabulous, slightly shabby, not-quite-ironed look that makes a great, long table runner for your dining room, a sideboard, or maybe on top of a dresser--whatever suits your style.

The hankies were an assortment of cotton and linen, and the backing to this runner is a remnant from a heavy piece of new, IKEA cotton fabric. It's thick and nubby, natural off white with little bumps in a grid pattern. The runner is just over 12" wide by 65" long.

This runner would look great on a coffee table, side table or wherever your heart desires! It measures about 13-1/2" wide by 37" in length.

~STUNNING Chenille~Cotton Pillow PAIR~

...pretty cottage/chic style in two matching (front chenille is mirror image), hand-made pillows--hand made from vintage and new fabrics.

The front is a lovely new wavy pale green and blue plaid of lightweight cotton with gorgeous vintage floral chenille at the top. A band of matching green piping neatly divides the two fabrics (front only). The back top is a white vintage cotton hobnail chenille with the fringe still attached at the top edge, viewable from either side. (The two chenilles are different sizes-- designed not to meet at the side edge, adding to the 'cottage' look of the pillow) The back has 2 white buttons to secure an envelope-style enclosure, so the poly-fill pillow insert can be removed for washing!! The pillows measure about 14" square, plus the fringe at top.

Sorry, This item is SOLD!
