#vinamary

Recently my Sister came across a whole heap of old tins in her shed that had random lots of sewing accessories and notions in them. I got around to trying to sort the buttons this weekend and in the bottom of one tin rescued this little clown pin cushion from drowning in a sea of old wooden cotton reels. He’s about 80 years old and doesn’t look a day over 35! But my favourite find was this early century wooden needle case. It’s design is fading and the paint wearing and is a bit rough in spots but I absolutely felt the decades of seamstress energy emanating from it. So gorgeous. ✨ I’m going to pretend I can keep them for a few days but then they will be for sale in our etsy shop. www.etsy.com/au/shop/Jessabellas

Uniquely Australian Vintage. We have a few of these very rare 1940s Weigels dress patterns. The sheath dress has always been a personal favourite style of mine. It’s so very elegant. My grandmother was a Seamstress on an old Singer treadle most of her life. We named our sewing section of our shop after her. So visit Vina Mary’s in Jessabellas. It’s been filled with treasure that’s being snapped up quickly by lovers of vintage patterns and sewing notions. www.etsy.com/au/shop/Jessabellas
