Wide open spaces, and sacrifices!



Business is going reasonably well at the moment, so I have managed to clear my front verandah of some furniture I found buried under stuff....had them a couple of years, but couldnt sit on them! So now I have blank spaces! It is an incentive to keep going, and no more shopping for a while, though after my next sale, I will be bringing in some more! It never ends does it!! Just the way I like it!


Some people can cut up fabric like there is no tomorrow, but I almost find it a crime....
But today, there was no stopping me, there were sacrifices to be made!
I actually found it easier as I went along! Im feeling a bit guilty that I enjoyed it! I buy some things like clothes, curtains and tablecloths from op shops,just for the fabric. But when I get them home, I usually like them too much to get the scissors to them, oh well Im on a roll now!


The inspiration board was made from a bedhead.
You might notice the lace I used to make this inspiration board, may look familiar...I cut up one of my saris! There I said it! I know, what was I thinking! And while Im still on the confession box, this gorgeous round crochet tablecloth was easy to cut up, well some of it anyway! Oh I cant believe Im telling you all this.



Dont worry, I wont be cutting this one up in a hurry!

Think of all the gorgeous creations I can make with these.....shame, but someone had to do it!
