Home Tour: Sublime Stitching & Vintage Art
Found! Proof that the world is a strange and small place. My cousin, Shahida, likes embroidery and, especially, roller derby. Both interests are brought together by Sublime Stitching, the embroidery pattern company that specializes in funky designs.
Since I’ve been spending so much time resting my hip, Shahida suggested I try some embroidery as a way to pass the time. I fell in love with their patterns.
I was just looking at their site a couple of days ago, hoping their cocktail napkins were back in stock. Later, the same day, I saw that Design Sponge had posted a tour of Sublime Stitching’s owner, Jenny Hart’s, home. I thought this stitchery dream was my own little secret. FAIL!
Anyway, the post focuses on Jenny’s wonderful, vintage art collection. Pay attention to how she puts the various shapes sizes and styles together.
I’ll start with an excerpt:
From Jenny Hart: “I often get asked if I collect anything. The truth is, I don’t really. Mainly I try to collect things from within my own family before they get discarded. But I do surround myself with things that I love, that have stories to them, and carry personal significance. My house has become what it is slowly, over time (I’ve lived in this house for about eight years). And without spending lots of money. I just collect things that I love to look at and use and have around me at home. It can take time for them to settle in and find their place, but these things just end up going well together!”
