My first and maybe my last.........
Yes I'm sentimental and yes I'm a crafter who could now so easily make a new one, but my first real patchwork make that was useful was my peg-bag!
It must be about 40 years old now!
Tumbling blocks patchwork, all hand stitched. Cost me nothing but my time.
Only the very bottom hasn't faded from the almost original colours. The brown was an old curtain, the pink a linen shirt and the purple were trousers, all lined with what once was my favourite denim maxi skirt.
So again it's time to repatch some well worn places to keep it going.
Well you can't just replace an old friend, can you?

Love that the base still indicates the original colours.
Amazing eh?
