News and What’s New

This long enforced period of being at home has given me the time to sort out a lot boxes and finish off various projects – like my leaf jacket.  For years I have been saving small scraps of Liberty fabrics to make into cards.  Now I have done so and am selling them for charity – £2.50 each.  The small squares are bonded onto iron-on Vilene.  I then attach ribbon, using double sided super sticky tape and finally attach a small sequin to the centre.  I started using buttons but found that they will not go at the normal letter postage rate.

I have also been making masks from Liberty tana lawn fabric.  These are pleated so they come down over your chin.  They also have wire in them so you can mould them to your face and there is a pocket for putting in some paper tower or other  disposable filter.    Liberty tana lawn is beautifully soft.
