Vintage Slow Stitch Kit - Vintage Fabrics - Vintage Music Box

A slow stitch kit in a1970's musical box in the shape of a bakery, complete with a dancing ballerina.

This little building* opens up to reveal a ballerina. If you wind the key at the back, she will dance to "Thank Heavens For Little Girls", whilst you sew!

In keeping with the ballerina and her delicate tutu, this slow stitch kit sticks with pale colours, flowers and lace. Inside there a 5 beautiful vintage hankies. Two are white with handmade lace borders, three are hand embroidered with flowers. Added to these is a reel of vintage, white sewing silk, a card of little white buttons and a length of white lace trim. Maybe a good combination to make a journal, or to start a slow stitch collage.

These vintage sewing sets make great gifts, and this one is ready to hand over to a sewing friend if you can bear to! 

This bakery jewellery box  measures 18cm x 13cm x 9cm. There are other sets to choose from in the shop.

*This is an original 1970's jewellery box in full working order. The winding mechanism is good and the ballerina pops up when the lid  lifts. She turns in front of a mirror. When you close the lid, the music stops. As this is old, and covered in paper, the colours have faded over the years. The details are still good but not as vibrant as they once were.
