We had the first Chertsey Museum session of the year on Friday. The finished EPP Christmas stars were brought in and admired: Some other were still up with Christmas decorations, others had been put away - Stephanie made 4 and strung string between them to hang her Christmas cards from! I think we'll call that a success!
This month we were making waste fabric.- basically strips of waste fabric woven over rug canvas. It's difficult to see from the pics but there were some great colour combinations here - I especially liked the ones that used black and white and a bit of colour.
Once the weaving has been done, the fabric is stitched on a sewing machine
I've told them to use all the fancy stitches they have never use - and to use up all the odd bobbins and spools of thread that aren't really worth keeping but we do because we don't like waste
I look forward to seeing them next month
My sewing room is now looking like this
a bit busier than when it was my bedroom
And I keep trying to remember it's husband's office too!!!!! (the wardrobes will eventually go!)
And finally - Goddaughter was delighted with her Christmas pressie:
