Some of us had a fabulous day with Cathy from Dear Emma Designs today. We were making fabric bowls. Cathy brought in some of her stunning work as inspiration:
We had a bit of a practise at free machining first - fiddling with tension and speed!
I have to say the tables in the hall weren't great - bit too bouncy which made accuracy a challenge. Once we'd got our eye in we then cut our pieces for the main outer and lining of the bowl and then set to work with our designs:
Then it was bond-a-web to anchor our shapes followed by machining. We didn't manage to complete our bowls in the session but left with instructions and we all thoroughly enjoyed ourselves.
