Bunting nearly ready.

This week I've rummaged through my fabric stash in search of 'bunting' fabric.

Bunting fabric is not my most precious fabrics and not ones in short supply.

Bunting fabric includes - my daughters old school shirts, my sons PE shirt, my daughters zig zag skirt, some T shirts and even some cot sheets !!!!

I wanted approximately 20m of bunting but my maths skills let me down, I cut way too many triangles. So I made 29m of bunting!!!

All laid out on the kitchen floor ready for sewing.

Then just sew, sew,sew.

Finally a ta-da moment.

Back in February I started a quilt and although Half Term got in my way, I actually finished the quilt in the same month.

Quite something for me, my projects can last months and months (years really!)

The machine quilting can be difficult on my domestic machine. I always have great ideas about wavy lines or random patterns but really it straight and simple every time.

Using most of my scraps, I had enough for the binding.

So the finished quilt sat in a bag for all of April and most of May, waiting for me to take a finished photo.

It really was too sunny and the quilt looks a little washed out, but its done.

(it also got covered in green off the fence)

So onto the next project . . . . .
