Consumption of fabric

No eating quilt fabric! At least not on your own. That's what it says on the selvedge of this fabric!! I am definitely going to start saving selvedges for a natty project sometime.

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.

Where am I going to find these coat hangers in my town???
