Betty Silver






A friend and I hadn't made plans for the weekend so decided to treat Betty Silver to an outing and get together for a sewing day. Once she arrived the boyfriend was put to good use and sent for wine and Maltesers. One wine bottle turned into 3. I don't know what's worse, the calories or the units?

10 months a go I bought some black and white flock fabric from material heaven Abakhan. It was a bargain and I had every intention of making cushion covers but never quite managed to make a start.
With my friend's encouragement we made a return trip to purchase the cushions needed and with scissors in one hand and wine in the other we began our envelope cover mission with a little help from Kirstie.
We had a great afternoon, I was so chuffed with the end results! The boyfriend has been warned that if I find a single droplet of spilt tea on my beautiful cushions he'll be shipped back to his mum's!

To my sewing partner, thanks for all your help! x
