Vintage Bracelets




Here is a sample of one of my most popular items, bracelets made from vintage material, and adorned with vintage buttons. They are adjustable to fit different wrist sizes, and super comfy! Each bracelet is lined with polka-dot material, because I firmly believe the world would be a happier place if we all wore more polka-dots!

I will be selling these and other BooDilly items most Saturdays at Eastern Market, or you can visit my Etsy store at www.sillyboodilly.etsy.com

Feedsack Top



Needed to make something agricultural themed for the agricultural art exhibit at Eastern Market on July 14th. Decided to make this top out of an old chicken feed feedsack that I had laying around. The words say, "FUL-O-PEP Egg Breeder Mash" then there is an image of what appears to me to be two roosters fighting! Maybe they are just a little too ful-o-pep! The back of the shirt shows the list of ingredients that went into this potent mash.

More From The Magic Garden




Here are some more photographs of the Magic Garden. I wish I could take credit for these photos, but that would have to go to my daughter Em, because I, like usual, forgot my camera at home. Thanks Em!

Angry Girl


Sometimes things don't go as smoothly as one hopes that they will. Many failed attempts today just to get a picture loaded. Feely a bit like my little Angry Girl quilt.

The Magic Garden


This face is a small part of the wonderfulness found in Isaiah Zagar's The Magic Garden.
My oldest just graduated high school and to celebrate we took a trip to Philadelphia's South Street. Seeing and walking through The Magic Garden was so exciting! Breathtaking, headshaking, and truly deserving of it's name. If you haven't been, go. ( It only costs two bucks and the money goes to the preserving of, in my opinion, this national treasure.)
