4 Crafty Chicks using Fabric

Hello there Blends, here is something new for me, the 4 Crafty Chicks challenge this week is to use fabric on your project, yes I have used ribbons but not fabric.  I really went into a slight panic over this one as I haven't done much sewing for ages and didn't think I would have any fabric.  Anyway I did find some, I'd made a bag for my Mum to use to carry her rather heavy bible to church. 

As I wanted a sturdy bag, we'd bought some tapestry fabric and this just turned out to be perfect for this challenge.


I love these heritage colours and it was perfect for the tapestry fabric.  I've even sewed on the card as well.  Something I don't usually do either!

Hope you're inspired to use Fabric on your projects this week and link up to the 4 Crafty Chicks challenge.

Cheers,
Kasey ~ in Oz

      Hi Kazza, thanks for visiting and for your comment. Yes I thought is was a brilliant bit of inspiration to use the tapestry fabric, almost a piece of art in itself!
