🍏 Meet Alice Apple & Tommy Tomato 🍅

The Prelaunch Festivities for Love You to Pieces: A Gift of Friendship are in full swing, and it's time to meet our next charming character… Alice Apple.

Alice is a classic cloth doll with a timeless twist—cheerful apple-print dress, pistachio-colored rosette, embroidered eyes full of personality, and hand-stitched details that make her truly one-of-a-kind.
 

And just like Sunshine Polly before her, Alice is paired with a fabulous Oliso M3Pro project iron for our next giveaway—this time in the lovely Pistachio color. Sign up for our Prelaunch Festivities and you'll be automatically entered in the giveaway—plus you'll get exclusive sneak peeks, behind-the-scenes stories, and early access to the book launch.

Discover the Story Behind the World's Most Famous Pincushion!
 

In my Tomato Pincushion Primer Course, you'll do more than just sew—you'll uncover the history and charm of this beloved sewing notion.
 

This online class takes you inside my vintage collection, introduces you to textile expert Dawn Cook Ronningen for a fascinating interview on the origins of the tomato pincushion, and shows you how to bring “Tommy the Tomato” to life in your own sewing space.

You'll learn how to:

🍅 Sew your own tomato pincushion from wool sweaters, shirting, or vintage linens

🍅 Make bonus projects like a bracelet pincushion and mini gift pincushions

🍅 Explore the fascinating history of sewing notions through Dawn's expert insights

🍅 Enjoy printable heirloom art, vintage articles, and an inspirational album from my collection
 

This course is part sewing tutorial, part history lesson, and all heart—perfect for anyone who loves vintage textiles, handmade gifts, and discovering the stories stitched into everyday treasures.

I recently went treasure hunting at an Estate Sale and found some wonderful quilts! I even found a few quilt patterns that are featured in my new book, Love You To Pieces: A Gift of Friendship—serendipity! I shared these photos on my Amy Barickman Studio Instagram page last week. I would love for you to follow along!

Do you have a favorite quilt or quilt pattern? Would love for you to share your favorite and more in my Facebook Group: Amy Barickman's Vintage Made Modern. Join our group and share all your vintage, quilty, fun finds!
