Bunting and Brooches !! ;-)

On Sunday, I treated myself to some fabric from my shop so that I could sew some vintage bunting for my various craft events.


It's temporary home is now in my kitchen, on a certain unit which holds all sorts of
luverly fripperies!



After that, I had a few strips of fabric scraps left over and so I made a few cheap and cheerful brooches .
Vintage fabric, new buttons.





Bunting and Brooches...I quite like that name!

I do hope that everyone's week is going well !
