This weeks challenge for Kim Klassen's Tuesday Texture is 'vintage' - however we choose to interpret what we consider vintage to be, using at least one of Kim's lovely textures.
I looked up the word 'vintage' in my old Oxford Paperback Dictionary and it says, among things such as vintage wine and vintage cars ..... adj. of high quality, especially from a past period. Well I have this very high quality Simon & Halbig doll, this very old but high quality Frister & Rossman hand sewing machine my husband bought secondhand for me when we were courting,and some high quality but rather worn beautiful hand made lace, as the photo above shows.
Till next time

It's as clear as mud as to what you're doing, but the effect is gorgeous, so obviously you're doing it right!!
MA has been reading my m9nd again Val--I don't understand what you are doing but I like the results.
Now the photo you took of vintage items looks like a vintage photo! Cool stuff.
The original image looks great, but the texture works certainly add a lovely vintage feel to it. Nicely done.
Just to show you how old I am I remember learning to sew on that type of machine. Lovely Val. V
I love this idea! It is so interesting - couldn't believe it! I have that same doll. It was my great Grandmother's! My mother had it all restored. Nice image - I never think about taking the color down for vintage.
A beautiful vintage image:)
Great interpretation of this weeks' prompt.
Beautifully edited. I did notice the wooden spool of thread!
Wonderful vintage feeling....
Happy to be following you now!
Beautiful! I love the vintage feel....
I love your vintage things - they are beautiful in color and in sepia!
