and so i was totally inspired to make....................the newest Kinn Jones Hat......'Peppermint Breeze'. I had some khaki upholstery fabric......and i looked thru my stash of grandma donated bias binding..................and BAM....it just jumped out at me...peppermint green and khaki..........an oddly perfect match!!! So i covered some buttons in a tealy green vintage silky lining fabric...and i had a mint green upcycled cotton for the lining to complete the combo!!
'when you got it - flaunt it'...a quote by Jean...my most lovable sparky grandma
I actually used an Organic Cotton Jersey band for the lining, its the most yummy sunflower seed colour....although i forgot to take a photo of it!!!
Check them out in the shop.....available in small and large......just sold the medium this afternoon, to an unsuspecting birthday girl on Vancouver Island - lucky her!!!
And I have posted a Jemima Jones to celebrate the sunshine :::
I found this most kitschy cool sampler of a vintage upholstery fabric......so hells, why not make a gorgy lil clutch outta it!!!! And of course my favourite turf green tablecloth is used again for the strap/handle and trimmings, topstitched with thick aqua to complete the kitsch!!!

Also just dropped some Sparky Jones Milly Jones headbands off at Propeller today.............i packaged them up in their Kraft boxes and upcycled pattern tissue paper to keep them safe and look cute, and rode my bike Nelly to drop them off..........................COZ ITS THE FIRST DAY OF SUMMER AND ITS NOT RAINING!!!!!
This is going to be Waste Wonderful Wristlet week.....................so i'm hoping to post some new colour combos by the end of the week!!!!
bye for now
