A - Z Challenge 2016
C is for Cotton
Which is used to stitch fabric together
I am a cross stitcher at heart and we call our cotton 'thread' or if you are from another part if the world you may say 'floss' :)
No matter were u live it all means the same ... The stringy thing which we adore!! :)
Cotton on reels has become a new passion for me over the past few months as I have become a machine sewer since my parents bought me a sewing machine for Christmas :D
My cotton collection is small but my ambition is big :)
This weekend I turned a picture that Katie drew into a cushion for her!! We are both delighted with the result lol ... Yes you guessed it, now the kids are drawing like crazy and my small cotton stash will soon be no more :( lol
Katie made a drawing then a cushion kit!! |
Ice-cream all sewn up According to Katie's 'pattern'!! |
Ice-cream cushion all stitched and ready to be stuffed! |
Sorry for the short post - my computer went down again and I am trying to control my kindle touch screen and buttons ... Its harder than it looks! lol
Have a happy Monday
Hugs
