whatcha reading?
Thursday, July 02, 2009I received this book last fall and immediately earmarked several projects. The book then got placed alongside my knitting books and was sort of forgotten until Libby started reading a book she thought she couldn't read around her brothers. The back cover had some "girl content" and she knew they would see it.
I remembered the book cover project which was perfect for concealing what she wanted to hide.
We picked out some fabric and used a contrasting brown linen scrap for the lining. A ribbon saved from a gift from my sisters travels to Italy. Gusto: Vigorous enjoyment. Perfect.
There are several other projects in the book I would love to make.
A new apron may be in order. I'm thinking brown linen would be nice.
And maybe a new set of summertime coasters.
