I have took delivery of the most sumptuous material, ever since I first got married I've wanted something for my home but have never been able to find the right size or the right look.
I found the material at Terry's Fabrics and new it was just what I needed, I need to find some trim for it and I will be giving my sewing machine a whirl.
I'm not making curtains, I'm not making cushions but I am making something that my Nanna (Grandmother) used to have.
Can you guess what I'm making?
I'm dying to get started.

I guess it's not a pin cushion as there seems to be too much material lol. Is it a table runner?

I think that Greta is right my gran used to have a chenille table cloth in that colour and also one in green I still have one of her original ones it has a fringe around the edge xxx
I would guess a fringed table cloth, my Nana used to have one, I can just see it now in my mind's eye. Ahhh.... childhood memories.

Yes I am going with a table cloth too. My grandmother had a beautiful deep green one with lovely trim and matching fringe.

Spill the beans Jak most interesting xx
I would think maybe a complete cover for an ottoman, as I remember my grandmother had one exactly this color with a trim down the bottom, which she threw over the ottoman, when they expected guest in the house, as my granddad always laid on this sofa for his lunchnap every day , and she was always soo mad, it didn´t look fine enough, when guests popped in, so she made this cover for it, and it looks exactly like this.
My Nan used to have these things over her arms on the sofa and chair that she made herself, I think she said they were called auntie macasans errm I don't know how to spell them but for years I thought I had a aunt called that :0)
Hi Jac, I'm opting for a Table cloth or Runner..x
A whole cloth quilt for the bed?
I too would say some sort of bed cover, how much longer are you keeping us in suspense ? ...luv Ursula
Tablecloth is it chenille type of fabric I can remember my
