A Perfect Pair.....

'Make Do and Mend', Bacon and Eggs, Ham and cheese, Romeo and Juliet, Simon and Garfunkel...the list is endless, so I've added my own 'Bunting and Feedsacks'! I like it, how about you?

Why do they go so well together?

Bunting to me is something that reminds me of an age when people didn't buy to throw away after one use. Today's throwaway society really distresses me, apart from being bad for the planet, it's also bad economically and a false economy......enter bunting.......a fantastic way to re-use, time and time again, something that says celebration! Who wouldn't want some? It can be used for just about anything, birthdays, weddings, holiday events, like last years Jubilee, barbeques and summer picnics....it can be washed.....and if you think about how much it costs to buy, it's very economical too......

Why Feedsack?.........because Feedsacks are from a generation when people did save things and use and re-use....they did  'make do and mend' and they certainly knew how to party!

This is my latest addition to my store, sorry it was actually too bright for the Feedsack patterns to be seen!!!!!! Yay maybe that means summer is on it's way. (Either that, or I'm just a bad photographer!) Check in store and it will be there.............it's gorgeous!
