This  cloth fits my small table combining two of my loves patchwork and torchon lace. I put a layer of pelon between the patchwork and the backing and hand slip stitched the torchon squares in place

The second set of cuffs and jabot worked for another grandson Worked from the same pattern varying the stitches in the scallops and trail etc so the boys can tell them apart.You can imagine the panic when it didnt arrive at its destination for 6 days from day of posting it to GS

These 2 facinators are made from   bras  they are going to be used to support Breast Screen
A great fun project. The brief was to make a facinator from a bra to support breast screen but it had to have hand made lace on it.
The pink flowers are from Rosemary Shepherds book fantasy flowers , the cream piece on No 2 is from Jenny Fishers book
