Round 9 And A Cover Up

 


After round 9 the doily measures 25 cm, 10 inches across. I'm working in size 40 thread.  I haven't blocked this round, I think it makes more sense to join it to the next round before blocking. 



A friend asked me to convert two beach wraps/sarongs into more wearable cover ups. She gave me a sample to copy. It's a simple shape, so it was easy enough to trace round it onto the fabric. Then I used this tutorial to remind myself how to make bias binding to neaten round the tops and form the straps. This is the second one. I did the other one last week and gave it to Phyl without taking a photo.

    The cover up is so elegant and perfectly cut/sewn! 💖
    Did you give the rolling pin blocking a try?

    The doily is looking really good, nice and even throughout. And such an interesting pattern for the cover up!
