Well it really feels like there is forward movement...I got the curtains made and hung in the dining room Thursday. I've had this fabric sitting in it's packaging for over a year since I spotted it in the Sale at Cath Kidston. It's a discontinued design called "Breakfast time" which seemed most appropriate for the B&B!
I've still got the sewing machine out, as I've a couple of other projects to do, including making a cushion for the back of the big chair out of a pair of vintage linen tea-towels, celebrating the investiture of Charles as the Prince of Wales in 1969! I picked the first one up in London some time ago, and found the second, here in Cardigan, not long after we arrived. It's a very stylised dragon design, bearing the very stern legend on the selvedge 'Accepted by the Council for Industrial Design'...well there we are then (as they say around here!)
This is a close up of the finished Dragon cushion - seen on the chair at the right o the picture above....
