pretty practical...

 yesterday began with a quick much needed project.

the loo door is half glass and when we first moved in i put up a temporary scratty piece of fabric to tide us over...that was 9 years ago now...ahem...



every time i sat on the loo i was reminded that i really needed to rectify this.
9 years is obviously plenty of time to decide just what i wanted up there.

having played around with doily prints recently and having developed a recent penchant for this colour ways having been inspired by this print i put 2 and 2 together and whipped up this piece of fabric.


it was a case of layering up the colours using the lovely warm sunshine to speed up the drying process...

it started with pale pink...followed swiftly by some ochre...


and finally a splash of gunmetal grey.


4 stitched edges and an insert of ribbon and i'm wondering why it took my 9 years.



i'll have time now to think of other things while frequenting the littlest room in the house.
