I thought I would share with you my collection of table top dress forms. I started collecting them purely by accident.
These cute little ones, were given to me as a gift from my friend Dianne. The shorter one is really a little box you can store tinny treasures.
The pretty white wire one below, my friend Penny gave me for Christmas. I put some pretty pink fabric inside to make it look like she is waring a dress.
I found the pretty white one, which you see below, while at my favorite quilt shop. She just called out to me, wanting to go home with me. I put some antique lace & trims on her, but I think I need to send her to Char, at Somewhere in Thyme, to fancy her up, because Char makes such pretty things.
So since I have started collecting dress forms, it wasn't any wonder when I saw the pattern from Fig Tree & co. of Madeline, that I had to make it for my sewing room. I made her with Rouenneries fabric by French General because the day I first saw this fabric line, I knew I had to have it. I am so happy how she turned out.
I just need to quilt it when I get some free time.
Thank you for stopping by.

The personalized quilt is so you! Perfect!!
ReplyDeleteI didn't know you collected those. They are so pretty! Love the quilt too. The fabric is beautiful.
ReplyDeleteThose are SO cute... They're giving me an idea. I want to make a pincushion on a stand and that top one (looks like it's on a candleholder) is a perfect one to use as my inspiration. Don't you think that would be wonderful out of wool?!
ReplyDeleteRebecca ... thanks for sharing the photos of your collection ... I love the white wire one with the polka dot fabric tucked inside. The "Rebecca's Room" sign is just so darling! You have a lovely home ... :-) Pat
