Embroidery fun!

The Old House hosted a free embroidery class on July 23, 2008. Its amazing how quickly


students learned a few basic stitches. The class participants each finished a really cute sampler design with iron on transfers and instruction courtesy of our Antique Mall vendor Urban Nostalgia.


We definately hope to hold more classes like this in the future. If you are interested please contact us.


A lovely selection of these adorable transfer patterns from Sublime Stitching are available here in the Antique Mall...along with accessories like embroidery scissors and t-shirt stabilizer. We also have a variety of vintage pattern books for all your retro crafting needs.


For those of you too busy to try embroidering your own linens... our vendors have a lovely selection of "ready made"vintage pieces in beautiful condition.

Birthday Success!






We'd like to send a big thank you out to all our new and returning customers. Our Antique Mall's First Anniversary Sale-abration on July 19th and 20th was a great successs and we enjoyed sharing Birthday cake and lemonade with all of you.
