@Ann not a pattern, just a tutorial in a magazine which a friend lent to me. Issue 16 of love Sewing. I have no idea how old it is?!
If you like I could photocopy the pages and post them to you. I think. Am I OK to do that? Will I get in trouble?!

Fun with Fabric / Pre-washing
« on: August 21, 2019, 12:42:13 PM »
Are you ready for my latest question?
When pre-washing new fabric, not got any
do you do this on it's own or bung it in with a laundry load? Does it matter?

I was given some leather from friends who were slinging an old sofa. I had a practice make, I attempted a wee zippered coin purse. It didn't go well. Not sure if you need particular type of machine, or needle, but my old Janome didn't cope well with it. Just sayin 
Good luck with it
