Anyhow, he brought, a book(of eygpt), and 8 yrds, of eygpt print material. He gave me 2 yards of that print. The question I have for any & everyone is, what can I do with it. I hate to cut it up. I thought, of cutting it in 1/2, and sew the 2 peices together
What about a bit of embellishment for a wall hanging. Add some metallic gold things----------maybe a small pyramid, piece of head gear, columns. Oh, maybe take a part some old jewelry and attach some how. |
Here's a link to a pattern called 9-patch pizzaz, by Judy Sisneros. Might be the perfect thing! best of luck. :-)

you can send it to me, if you don't know what to do with it.
if you decide, you don't want to send it to me.,,,,,, under no circumstances , do not, do not cut it. |
I love it...I think I would use it as a backing on a quilt with the same colors!
|
I agree with quilting Cowgirl, very pretty material. ;-)
|
It is truly pretty & colorful!! I wouldn't want to cut it up either. Try to use it so the theme is shown.
