Published Sew Somerset Winter 2018 Issue

Back in November 2017, 

I was swamped creating inventory for the Holiday Markets.

In the midst of all that,

I received the Winter 2018 issue of Sew Somerset

Published by Stampington & Co.

I was so happy to have my mason jar tea towel published!

I love creating using the sewing illustration technique.

I am grateful Sew Somerset continues to publish my work.

Late November, I posted about this on

Isa Creations Vintage on Instagram and Facebook.

It’s only now( months later) that I share this on my blog.

Continue to struggle to blog as often as I should; 

Especially since I have created many new items all these past months.

So here it is!!!

A Paris Street Market June 2017

As I write this post, I am on the road with my dear friend Amy (owner of the Pink Attic Cat), her husband and my friend Greg on our way to Junkstock!

We enjoyed a beautiful sunny day this past Saturday at A Paris Street Market.

Created lots of new items.

Large batch of 130 vintage Embroidered Pin Cushions

Vintage Embroidered Doilies Garlands -21 new ones

Small batch of Camper Tea Towels -18 new ones

House and Girl Mix Media Keychains

It's been a very busy last few weeks. Inventory created mostly in preparation for my next market- Junkstock in Nebraska!

May- A Paris Street Market

The weather was perfect this past Saturday,

right up till the market closed at 3.

Then it got cloudy. David and Alex helped me load the u-haul van as it started to rain. Just before I collapsed the canopy tent, a strong wind gust hit. Thankfully both David and I were holding the canopy so it stayed in place. Thankfully all my inventory was packed before the rain arrived.

I will be a vendor at A Paris Street Market June- September and October. Here is the Market info I posted on Instagram last week

Grateful for my husband David who once again helped me setup. Alex and David also came after Alex's soccer game to bring me lunch. Enjoyed visiting with my friends -Amy of the Pink Attic Cat, Dale and Peggy, and Carla & Hannah.

Bike Flour Sack Tea Towels

One of my favorite techniques is Sewing Illustration.

I've created tea towels using this technique.

Last year I made and sold out of all my camper tea towels.

Earlier this year I created tea towels with houses and blue ball jars with flowers.

I have many ideas on other tea towels I want to create.

They all take time to develop- create a pattern and a technique as to how create it.

One of those ideas is to create a bike tea towel.

I finally accomplished it and I am happy with the results.

Like the mix media inspired girl Mantra pillows, I used vintage crochet flowers. Mini crochet flowers in the bike basket.
