Now how are those two connected, well I bought 27 of 6x6 box frames and a large freestanding decorative easel for a song. The boxes alone, bought retail, would have cost £3 - £4 each and the frame about £40, so I am a happy bunny. Now you've got there the boxes are going to be used for the Slack Space piece.
Here's a quick picture of a rough layout of one - I have 27+ further ideas lol.
It's based on a 1959 issue of Stitchcraft and my sewing box. Personal to me is the name tape used for my childrens clothes when at school and the Coggeshall Knitwear label, I used to have a small Knitwear Design business, so I have loads of these labels. The other items are all vintage and bought on my forays to boot and antique fairs.
I just noticed some new followers, welcome newbies and thank you to my faithful band of regulars! I just love to get your comments, I do read them all - best waste of time I know.- and what else am I going to do when I am having a coffee break?
Love all those needle work bits. Good Luck with Slack Space you deserve it.....xx
