Billet-Doux*

*Love Notes

Everything we make, we make with our four hands.  Individual differences will occur in any handcrafted item.  It's these differences that make them special!

All of our items are made in limited numbers - when they're gone, they're gone!  We do not make more.  Instead, we move on to something new!  Check back often to see what we're up to!

The Swan Lace Etui is a smaller version of the Swan Lace pocket.  This one holds a card with glass head pins and a needle, and is adorned with "two swans a-swimming".  A very sweet gift for a stitching friend!

We add new items as fast as we can think them up!  Always featuring antique needlework and especially samplers, our products are made with loving care and an eye to detail.  Watch for new brainstorms!
