My lovely friend HELEN bought me back some delicious small pieces of fabric from her trip to Melbourne last year – raindrops, dandelions, bicycles BICYCLES?!! ahhh….yum yum yum…
On the weekend I sewed them into a simple patchwork scarf, using some vintage floral (this was a dress which I thrifted for the fabric) for the back. I love KANTHA style stiching, so I stitched three rows at the bottom of the scarf.
It only took about an hour to make, so was quick and satisfying – the way I like my craft!
I am looking forward to wearing it a lot this autumn, sometimes with the bicycles outwards, and sometimes with the floral outwards – depending on what else I am wearing.
gorgeous. love those dear hand-stitches.
