 Unfortunately Isobel Luke was unable to deliver her talk due to being unwell. We all hope you feel better soon, Isobel! So a stitch and chat was slotted in instead, and members brought some things they had been working on over lockdown some people have been very busy!

Day School with Morag Grey

Some of our members enjoyed a innovative day school with Morag, making these unusual scarves. Here Jean McAllister describes the method.

We started off with 3,4 or 5 tee shirts. The number used  depended on the thickness of materials. We Cut off from armholes and up 1 seam to make a long rectangle/ scarf shape. 

We then machined down 4 cms vertical lines and then 4 cms across.

The next step, with very sharp scissors and strong thumbs, was to cut a cross in within each square.

The final step was to machine wash the scarf, which took on a different look depending on materials and colours used. Here are some photos of the finished scarves.
