Recycling for March
March 27, 2020
I decided to break my routine today and do my recycling project for the month. Actually there are two of them but I only finished one.
I found an old embroidered tray cloth, full of holes, so after washing I cut out the embroidery and then framed it in some other fabric. I had to join lots of bits together to get the finished piece because I only had a couple of pieces left over from what I had bought years ago.
This fabric is a traditional Dutch Chinz , lovely, but not much of it.
I made a flat bottomed zippered bag and added a tassel.
I started on a second, using the other end of the tray cloth, that I will finish to morrow,
All these recycled projects are destined for the sale table at the Qld Embroiderers Guild. I have come to quite like that lady.
She pops up all over the place, that lady!

Shes very old actually, goes right back to the Mother Godess. Just keeps reinventing herself.
