Good morning all.
Today, keeping in the footie theme (as if we haven't had enough!), my latest twiddler is a Shrewsbury Town Football Club version.
Ages ago, the STFC were kind enough to give me lots of bits and bobs to embellish them with. I have just about run out so, this time, I knitted ball bobbles and printed on fabric, pictures of old footie boots etc. I always think those old leather buttons look like the old style footballs.
Now some of you will remember that pristine, white Crafty Cover that I made for the business end of my ironing board where I tend to do odd jobs like cutting and sticking. It might sound odd - I do have a big table in my sewing room but the board is just the right height.
You can tell it's had good use - hence the melted Vilene, glue and felt pen.
But, note the bottom left hand corner. Annie will laugh at me for this.
I was carefully cutting out a few small items on my cover until it dawned on me that the fabric seemed a bit thick!
Hence the beautifully zig-zagged join holding the slashed piece together again.
What am I like! Answers on a postcard please.
Our youngsters deserve praise for giving so many folk such a lot to celebrate over the last month.
And maybe a few folk need reminding that " It's not the winning but the taking part" that matters.
Have a great week.
xx Jo
