This holiday, I decided I wanted to try a project that was small & contained, didn't need electricity, and was a bit different from my usual projects.
Doughty's of Hereford do a fantastic range of fabrics, and it was a little pack of 20 strips of patchwork fabrics that caught my eye. Next I spotted a little pack of hexagons, and my holiday project was decided.
It feels very weird to be doing all this hand sewing. But I am enjoying the simplicity of it.
At Christmas, the Beloved bought me some lovely yarn from Wool Warehouse, The yarn came in a drawstring bag. I have been using this bag on and off since then, but over the holiday the bag started to fall apart. This morning I remade the bag, making sure that all of the voile was carefully enclosed within seams. I also added a much stronger cotton top to the bag.
I love that the bag is see through, and I can easily find the little hexagons, the threads etc. It is much easier to use than an opaque bag.
