Something New ..........from Something Old.
Cleaning out my linen cupboard the other day, trying to make room for more craft things, I came across a lot of crochet doilies and a cream table runner that I didn't like. I wasn't going to be putting them back so I spread them out on the spare bed. They sat there for a few days and then I stared to arrange the doilies on top of the table runner. I left it there for a bit longer and every time I went passed the room I went in and changed the position of the doilies until I was happy with it. I pinned the doilies into place and stitched them on with the sewing machine. I now have a new runner that I really love with a lot of memories.
