The studio is full of inspiration ...
and things from the past.
There are cases full of fabric, buttons, lace, and papers
to choose from.
Last year, while in Cornwall, I collected some sea
glass. At last I have found a way to display
some of it.
I then moved on to this picture transfer.
Picking fabrics that complemented it.
Louise showed us how to make pocket inserts
so I had a go myself.
But now what should I make it into?
I decided on a cuddle cushion in the end with buttons
and a cosy pocket to keep my hands warm
while watching tv.
Then I started to rummage through the driftwood.
I had chosen this selection of fabric to work with.
Perfect for a sailing boat don't you think?
Bunting and sails ...
tied onto the driftwood ...
and part sewn, part glued onto a
feather cushion covered in an old
woollen blanket.
Not the most practical thing I've made
but I love it all the same.
Enjoy the rest of your weekend.
