Tea? (Part 2)

[Biscuit]

Is it time for some new curtains in here?

Of particular relevance is that the colourway is called "Marmalade".



I do not need any new curtains at present, but I am trying to think what useful item could be made out of that fabric.

I slept well last night - six hours' uninterrupted sleep.

Congrats on the sleep front.

For the fabric, have you thought about a peg bag for the washing line! An old coat hanger and two squares of fabric, job done. Although if it's on old curtain might be a bit big. .
Or cushion covers???

Morning all!! Lovely sunny ride in, but hayfever....Booooo! Must be the grass pollen.

It is new fabric, 54 inches wide, which would make a very large peg bag. I could make one of those organiser thingybobs that hang on the back of a door.

Or you could make a job lot of hankies for @Biscuit?

Hang on....you're thinking of buying this material? I thought it 'was' an old curtain. In that case Wait a couple of days then consider if you still think it's a lovely pattern.

(No offence intended I was just saying... )

To be fair Biscuit, someone's taken the time to make it, it's only fair we should find a use for it.

The cafe could do with brightening up... it must be coming up to 3 years since we last closed for renovation...

Ok so how about a foot stool cover with an elasticated draw string thing underneath. I made one of these for the one in my house after the old covers got too dirty. So now I can remove it and pop it in the washing machine!!

Toilet roll dollies...

I know where to find the Owl fabric, if I decide to buy some and make something sensible with it.

Cafe curtains would be lovely S.... I propose free eclairs for the rest of the day... form an orderly queue, behind me...

You just want to rest your grubby boots on the Wol!

Curtains would only keep the sun out of the tea room. How about cloths for the tables? Oh and oven gloves for cake making in the kitchen !!!

I wonder if @Shaun could change the wallpaper in the Tea? thread once in a while?

What, and replace the red and white checked ones that Shaun's gran had made in 1958?

Sorry, I don't do DIY - and if you need confirmation of how rubbish I am at sewing curtains, ask Mrs. Admin.

I do pride myself on being able to produce a mean hair-bun though - which is no small feat when you see how thin and whispy Little Ms. Admin's hair is.
