6 months in the making after a visit to Tate Modern

The lines and colour blocks are cross stitch while the background is Hungarian stitch (I unpicked my first effort at cross stitch background as it was taking tooooo long).

This will be an hook earring display and holder.

Lined food cloche

Pretty but ineffective at keep insects off food plates, so I ‘lined’ the cloche with muslin.

Snap bags

A quick make using spare garden furniture fabric to make some doggie pooh bag holders.

I sewed a hair tie in a side seam so they can be attached to lead handle or a belt loop easily.

Draught excluder

October 10, 2023October 10, 2023 ~ guernseyjane ~ Leave a comment

A long deferred project using scraps from a friend’s kitchen upholstery project to create a coordinating doorstop for her.

A simple patchwork tube was wrapped around a rolled towel.

Used Corinne Brad’s craft channel tutorial to make the ‘sausage’ sit flat on the floor.
