For Sale, Wanted & Free to a good home / ISO black and white quilting cotton

« on: January 11, 2021, 17:40:36 PM »

Last year, I had a disaster. To rectify it, I need some white fabric with a black pattern. I have spots but can't find anything else on line.

Please does anyone have any that they would be prepared to sell to me? I need a variety so anything bigger than 5" square would be great.

TIA

Please excuse this terrible photo. No one else is up yet so I had to take it myself.

It has a pretty edge.

A Good Yarn / Exotic Burst Cowl by Dolly Bhardwaj

« on: October 16, 2020, 08:40:59 AM »

My mum asked me to get this pattern for her from Ravelry and when I saw it, I thought I’d have a go. It is a good way to use up oddments of wool. I think I’ve got enough for 50 cowls.

Plenty of ends to sew in.

Patchwork & Quilting ... Welcome to the Darkside / WIP storage

« on: August 29, 2020, 12:20:27 PM »

I have several ~~many~~ WIP (works in progress) in bags for life (handy for taking to sewing group/class), zippy wallets and carrier bags. They take up most of the floor space in my sewing space.

I wondered if you could advise me of a better way to store them. I’m wondering about plastic project boxes.
