Cath Kidstonesque Peg Bag

I love the vintage inspired look of Cath Kidston.  Fortunately my MIL knows this and most of my birthday and christmas presents for the last few years have been Cath Kidston inspired (they live in the UK so have more ready access than I do!).  Last year for my birthday my MIL sent the Cath Kidston Sew book.  I have already made the baby quilt out of it for Ginger and recently decided to make peg bags for both my best friend and our household.  The only thing I would comment on is that the instructions for both projects are vague at best, I think you would have to have a bit of sewing knowledge to complete them successfully.

Spotlight had some very Cath Kidstonesque fabric the other week month (it takes me that long to get around to things) so they turned out even better than I hoped.  It makes the washing line look sunny on these grey winter days.

  4. Beautiful! How nice of you to make one for your best friend, too! I love all things CK but I never order anything from the USA website. I just like to look, so thank you for a look. BTW, it takes me forever to get around to things, too! Smile.

  5. Hi PH! YES! I have Lark Rise to Candleford close by at all times. I just bought Still Glides the Stream and love it, too. I bought the audio book read by the actress who plays Laura. It's very fun as well! I forget which season has a special feature on Juniper Hill. Fascinating! Thanks for coming by to see my peonies. They are still lovely!
