Food Cover For Market

 


I want to make a couple of  food  covers for Saturday's market, but, obviously, I can't spend too much time on them. So I'm not going to sew beads around the edge. I did have to spend some time experimenting on the edging though. The net is very soft and has a tendency to get stuck under the foot plate of the sewing machine. I tried putting paper underneath, but I couldn't get the paper off without distorting the stitches. Eventually I ironed interfacing onto the back of the hem area, which will just stay there:


Most of the daisies are simple ones, but I did tat one double one:



There are 6 daisies on the cover and 11 of Jane Eborall's SCMR butterflies. I hope to make another food cover before Saturday, but one might have to suffice.
