About this Product
Here for consideration is my darling primitive bowl filler, which I've fashioned from vintage mustardy yellow 100% wool fabric. Measuring approx. 4.0"T X 4.0"W (+/- 1/2") the mini pillow square features a heart which I've fashioned from a bit of antique (1800's) black and white/off white calico fabric, chosen for you at random. And of course, it features one of my polymer clay sunflowers to coordinate with my little summer bee and sunflower collection! There are several different mix and matchies in this collection, so be sure you don't miss any-they all go so well together you'll want several to adorn YOUR home! They are perfect tucked into a cupboard, in a crock or bowl, or added to a basket of guest soaps in your powder room. Snuggled into a gathering of goodies in your country French farmhouse style tiered tray decor, they will look AMAZING! Use them as a very portable pincushion-to take around the house-or outside-as you work on mending, or fun slow stitching projects. If you collect teddy bears or dolls-or have an extra special partner or pal who does, this is a perfect size to nestle into the crook of an arm. As with all of my hand-crafted prims, this design is versatile and pleasing-the uses are limited only by your imagination!
All of my items are available across multiple platforms and are sold first come, first served. Please consider that these are created from ANTIQUE/Vintage materials, so I cannot just order more fabric from the quilt shop or a catalog-when the amount I have on hand runs out, it is GONE! If you love this item, best to make your purchase when you see it to avoid disappointment!
Fabric/quilts/trimmings with an indication of "vintage" or "antique" are NOT new; therefore, they may have wear, uneven color, small holes, and other age-appropriate imperfections. I make every effort to use the best parts of any fabrics, but they are seldom pristine.All of my fabric items are sewn completely around and a slot is cut into the backing piece, which is NEW fabric, for turning and stuffing. When you see a hand stitched seam on the back, it is deliberate, not a flaw. By creating my pieces this way, I can achieve better more accurate shapes than I would by hand sewing shut a curve or corner. ~B~

Shipping
We currently only ship to the United States.
I am NOT responsible for damages/theft etc. to uninsured packages regardless of reason. If your order is above the amount covered by the USPS,
we will automatically add the additional insurance required at the BUYER'S expense so that we are both protected in case of loss. I ship EVERY item with tracking,
and will message you the tracking number once your order ships. If a package seems "lost" I will be happy to assist you in locating it, but the USPS requires a 30-day wait
before an insurance claim can be filed (if your package is insured).
Customer is responsible for providing correct shipping address. I will only ship to the address you provide on your order.
Can We Hold Orders to Ship at a Later Date?
No. We ship our items quickly and cannot be responsible for keeping track of orders beyond the date on the original invoice.
We have thousands of items plus supplies to monitor and would feel terrible if something got lost in the shuffle.
