She asked, “Can this be made as a swing coat?”
I said, “Yes! Of course!”
First, those tubes. Step one, cut bias strips. Cut enough for the full edge of a swing coat.
Then, sew into tubes and all the while, listen to the audio book ‘Wolf Hall’. The time whooshes by and I learn about Thomas Cromwell.Then turn them right side out. It takes a while, but not too long. A repetition, my mind drifts.
Next up, iron flat, pin in place and hand stitch. Add beads.
It’s one step at a time, each stitch, each strip, each bead and before I know it, it will be finished.
