Into action

With a National Celebration just on the horizon and fabric on the worktable, it was time to crank up the bunting machine!

The pattern on the fabric is printed one way up, so rather than waste half of those triangles, I opted to stitch the pieces without the flags upside down.  Oh dear… the welsh harps are best seen from South Africa, Australia and New Zealand and I’m hoping that it isn’t a hanging offence to include a crown wrong way up, too.  Still, the flags are good and the initials WC spot on, centre stage.

I now have a couple of fat quarter sized pieces and a few other bits left and am wondering what I might do with them.  Any ideas?

bread basket liners for good British ...ummmmmm ... scones? A fancy toilet seat cover if you have one of those toilets that plays God Save the Queen when the lid is lifted? hmmmm a football cover for the bad days? A coat for when the groom becomes king? be sure to put it in some safe storage, they seem to be a long lived bunch those Windsors.....can you tell I am the "Americano" in the batch?

You could always make Olympic pennants if the material is suitable. I have been sorting patchwork material for our WI craft group to use.
