Fish Pie

BEFORE and AFTER


70s quilt has a new form




Well I messed this one up but I am going to still use it. I made it to put my music books in when I am going to my piano lessons. As my dad pointed out with much glee I messed the pocket up. Its because I didnt originally plan to do a pocket made the main bag then found it really hard to sew. As my machine is industrial it doesnt have free arm sewing. Meaning that anything that is tube shaped is hard to do such as shirt sleeves and as I now know pockets.
Whatever my vintage frankie goes to hollywood badge has a new home.

Friday afternoon

A certain Silver haired friend of mine keeps moaning about my ilability to spell. Whatever it isnt going to stop me posting.


Friday I made a skirt with lining. I havent used lining for a while. Mainly cause the first time I used it I destroyed the skirt as I no longer could fit my big hips in it.

Purple and Black a good mix I think.....
You cant really see but the black material has little holes in it with embroidery around them. So the purple lining is shows.
