I stitched this picture for a peg bag. It's a pattern from Willow Valley Store. Cathy is an Australian designer.
This is the first time I have used ric-rac as an edging. Can you see it along the top of the pocket?
The stitchery is the front pocket, then there is an oval opening I have edged with ric-rac too.
The pegs are accessed through the oval opening.
How cute is this ric-rac?
Next I need put a child-sized wooden coat hanger across the top and shape the bag to the curve before I add a binding to hold the layers together.
I don't have any child-sized wooden hangers that aren't already decorated. Isn't this bananas in pyjamas one cute? Mum gave it to me about 5 years ago.

Well, we do describe fabric as "Yummy" sometimes!
I suggest you can cut down an adults sized wooden coathanger, or even retwist a wire one, as the hook is the only part you will see.

What a great idea! Thanks!!
Yesss... they are yummy fabrics. LOL!!
Hi, I bought child size wooden hangers from a craft section in either Big W or KMart or Spotlight. They work a treat. You get 4 in a pack for just a couple of dollars. Seriously cute stitchery! Hugs, Andrea
Perfect stitchery for a peg bag. Love the fabric and the ric rac. Also, love the bird stitcheries.
