Unique
Handmade Jewelry
Down around the bend in the river, next to the barn
with hollyhocks and sunflowers, stands That Old Blue House. Look through the window
and you will find Illinois artisan Lisa Schureman, crafting her unique
handmade jewelry and suncatchers. Lisa gives us a peek into the past
through little windows of time created with the antique quilts, lace and
postcards she uses in making her vintage jewelry. Her vintage jewelry
includes the silver heart necklace pictured here, silver
charm bracelets, earrings, pins, and suncatchers. As seen in The Quilter Magazine September 2005
Quiltmaker Magazine Jan/Feb 2006.

Vintage
Jewelry Made from Antique Quilts and Lace
Discover this unique handmade jewelry. Each piece of handcrafted
silver jewelry is made from antique quilt or lace sandwiched between
micro-thin glass and surrounded by silver solder. These pieces of
handcrafted silver jewelry are one-of-a-kind, salvaged from
antique quilts and lace. Lisa has created unique handmade jewelry pieces
with reverence for the women who long ago created these beautiful quilts.
Lisa will also create custom-made quilt jewelry for you using your own antique
quilt, lace, or other fabric fragments with sentimental value.
