Pipes + Drums

Each piece that I craft is as unique as the wearer and is intended to be a piece of artistry that they carry with them. Thanks for stopping by!

I use the delicate craft of hand-stitched needlework on as much recycled and upcycled materials as I can to give new life to old items. I'm just an art student trying to get by. Having been thrust into adult life I'm doing my best of finding my own way and trying to keep a good balance of work, play, and sleep. I've always been interested in making any sorts of ideas I get in my head into a realit

y and try my best at it. My shop is consisted of my wonderful finds and the things that I love to make myself. I have a constant fire burning inside me causing a never-ending itch for thrift shopping. This itch has caused massive amounts of wonderful and beautiful finds that I want to share with the world! I have a love for mugs and drinking glasses in particular. I also love to make gorgeous bracelets and stamps in my spare time.

Hello, 2024!! I hope to get into social media a little bit more this year, though, I know I say it every year 🙃

I've been playing with vintage quilt squares and just love what I've created! Pillows, pot holders, and tote bags are just some of the things that I've been working on. Like the tedium lover that I am, I have recently picked up English paper piecing and am absolutely obsessed! I have started a quilt for myself to just relax and enjoy making.

I hope to have my market leftovers listed online soon and wish everyone love and positivity this year! Do what you enjoy!!

So, Facebook, how does this work, again? I just wanted to pop in with some updated work and to announce that I will be vending once again at my favorite local holiday market, the Holiday Art Market | Pyramid Scheme 12/17! I will have lots of updated vintage quilted items like tote bags, pillows, and the best gift-you-didn't-know-you-needed, bowl cozies! I will also be bringing along my classics with a polished update- hand embroidered patches, beanies, ornaments, and a few other new things that I have up my sleeve. I'll be seeing you! 😚
