i have discovered, since i began sewing, a very surprising fact: i love ironing. and this project is *the* project for ironing lovers!
i saw this post on purlbee awhile ago and promptly went out to my local fabric shop a bought 2 yds of linen and some fall-themed half yard pieces. it's taken me a while to actually do the sewing, but once i started, it only took 2 hrs to make the 10 napkins. here they are:
there is a lot of pressing, but i've discovered that i enjoy the pre-sewing process as much, if not more, than the sewing itself. and the results are really lovely. thanks, purlbee!
Lovely! How do these wash up? Does shrinkage cause any problems?
ReplyDeleteDo I see an aplique on the 1st napkin? How did you do that? Lovely. Can't wait to try.
