Lesley Posted February 12, 2009 Share Posted February 12, 2009 I bought some beautiful velvety patchwork fabric for a throw..........but realised that my sewing, and my sewing machine, weren't up to doing justice to the lovely fabric. I passed it to a forum friend to sew for me - she's made...... a reversible throw with fleece backing...... a matching panel to go above the doors to the conservatory. not the best photo....... I've also got a claret coloured fleece cover for the memory foam pillow I use to put the laptop on I am so pleased with it - can't wait to snuggle up with that throw Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lesley Posted February 12, 2009 Author Share Posted February 12, 2009 I feel a fraud posting it because it isn't my work Jazz likes it as well - I just popped to the loo and returned to find she'd snuck up onto the sofa and was lying on it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
