A lovely book - which I took with me - knowing very well
that I would never start larger projects when the family is around
I made a plate - and took the photo under the sky - resulting in a blue colour
I used this awful fabric - I would never use it in a quilt
and cut it up in narrow strips
and the wrapping started
I do about 35 cm/15" of wrapping
and then the sewing - slowly from the middle
with a zig-zag stitch
I like the plate - the colour is something in between
the photos under electric light and real light in the shadow
And the next one.....
a little basket
I used scraps of this fabric which a very friendly lady, Isabelle, gave to me
and from the scraps I could tell that they were meant to be pants for a child
in the machine - it has to be bent to end up in a bowl shape
I made three knots on the rim
This fabric looks quite nice - but I was barbaric and cut it up
to make still another little basket
an oval shaped one ....
And this is my sewing place now - in the old French house which DH is renovating
the desk is used and was transferred to us by our son -
an old house is good to deposit many things which one doesn't like anymore.
The quilt on the walI I made years ago - the pattern is from Hanna Muehe
