What a wonderful day...... or weekend
It was a wonderful weekend here at Red Gate Farm. Yesterday started with the sun peeking out. The horizon starting to glow.
Spreading to the greenhouse...
then the pumphouse...
and finally the barn.
Today, Sunday, I got to spend time here. In my sewing room.
Getting ready for the fast approaching baby shower. By making this...
into this. A cute, Anthropolgie inspired, tea towel made from a piece of vintage linen tablecloth. With a few added embellishments.
Let me show you a close up of the ribbon. I love this little ribbon with the cute little mushrooms. But "shhhh" don't tell, it's a surpise. Part of a prize for one of the baby shower games.
Sad to see the weekend go,

We had a lovely weekend too! Finally some sun. Your tea towel is so cute. It reminds me of the burpies we made for Baby Bee by sewing ribbon onto new diapers. I can't wait to see what else you have up your sleeve.
ReplyDeleteWhat a cute tea towel! Never thought to make one from a piece of vintage tablecloth.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great looking sewing room! I love the idea of making a tea towel out of a tablecloth!
ReplyDeleteLOVE the red polka dotted ribbon with the embellishment at the bottom. Where did you buy your ribbon?
ReplyDeleteI swear that is the cutest ribbon ever...! but then im a fabric hoarder that includes collecting ribbons... and im Polish so i love mushrooms - real and on ribbons lol!
ReplyDeleteWhen my Aunt Sophie passed on, she wanted me to have her rolls of embroidered and woven ribbon from Russia and Poland...this is an idea of yours I may copy !
