Penny Rug Collection - Christmas at Honeysuckle Lane



So... I finally took some time to do a little handwork and came up with this penny rug collection, just in time for Christmas!


Everything I used was vintage wool, from the old army blanket for the background fabric to sweaters, skirts, jackets, and blankets for all the pennies.

First, I made a large, lumpy, hefty pillow... it's filled with wool scraps which gives it so much weight and that handmade, primitive charm.


Then I stitched a pair of Christmas stockings...




And last, a penny rug mat for... whatever use you decide...



If you are interested in any of these handmade pieces, I have started listing in my Honeysuckle Lane shop again. Find everything HERE.

Thanks for stopping by!
