Vintage gems

Claire Bursnoll, aka Mrs Marmalade in the crafty world of all things vintage, turns old and unwanted textiles into fantastic and fun new items from patchwork quilts pincushions.
Claire, from Blackpool, came up with the clever idea of reworking vintage pillowcases into simply stunning dresses for our Happy House girls.
She gave me a beautiful selection, no two the same, to take out  to the Happy House with me and as you can see the girls loved them. Our Happy House models are our beautiful Mariam and Rose and back in Blackpool Claire's daughter Sophie was pictured with the dresses.
A big thank you to Claire from Mama Sue and all the family.
