Something lovely from scraps

January 26, 2012 by Denise Felton 1 Comment

Lisa of Ivory Blush Roses pieced together the usable parts of some antique white linens. From this beautiful fabric, some natural linen lining, and  Maureen Greenson’s pattern, she created an armchair sewing caddy that’s almost too pretty to use. She says, “There weren’t too many spots that needed seam embellishment as I tried to use the original edges as much as possible. But where seam embellishment was needed, simple feather stitch variations did the trick!” Lovely. See more photos at Lisa’s blog post.
