Practising!


Well suddenly found the upload picture button! This will be so much quicker to use and can be inserted at a relevant point in whatever I'm writing. This is just a test sample. The sample picture is of a Crazy Patchwork armchair tidy. I did this as a kit some years ago and it went really well. It was easy to do and very effective. The pale blue quilted background is hand-dyed silk dupion and I used a pale blue hand-dyed linen on the back (not shown) so that it wouldn't slip on the arm of a chair. The binding is a grosgrain ribbon folded in half. It makes a nice edging. I might even resurrect this kit and see how it goes.

I'm pleased I've found this facility. I wonder if there is anything else that might be useful. Will have to trawl around!
