Completed today.

I've finisheed these pretty pegs today, they are specially made for a wedding in Hawaii.
Here's a closer look.
Each one has been stamped with a special word then decorated some vintage music, and either a feather or fabric then a scrap of scrim topped with a flower. They have all been sprayed with Glimmer mist to make them sparkle.

They will be used to hold place names and will make an unusual Wedding favour.

I had a lovely day listening to the radio and making these.

Hope your day was good too.

Using every last scrap.

Image
With each collection of fabrics I am aiming to use "Every Last Scrap". There is so much waste created by the textile industry. I love fabric but I don't feel the need to hoard it or build a stash. After owning a Patchwork and Quilting shop in the late 1990s and with a partner who was a representative  for Moda fabrics, I managed to gather lots of fabrics. In 2014 I started a BA Hons in Textile Design (printed fabrics) which led to more fabrics being accumulated. I realise that having so much fabric inhibits, rather than encourages productivity. Sitting looking at huge amounts of fabric is overwhelming for me. Gradually I have donated, sold or given away most of my accumulation. I now work with a small collection and aim to use every little piece. This encourages my creativity and encourages a large body of work from even a small collection. I also avoid taking part in dozens workshops. I have attended so many and each producing lots of samples. I'm working back over m
