Many thanks for that information....Afternoon Ilona<br /><br />Many thanks for that information. I've got some unwanted pillows, so I'll make a casing and use the pillow stuffing. I'll keep the info for when I come across an old duvet (that seems a lot less faff that using the pillows, but I'm in no rush).<br /><br />Pleased that you are continuing with your blog. <br /><br />Regards<br /><br />CarolCarolnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3556657999892839298.post-68095304950819262192018-06-11T22:32:47.741+01:002018-06-11T22:32:47.741+01:00See my comment above.See my comment above.Meanqueenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02705837426373680532noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3556657999892839298.post-19745223664220244832018-06-11T22:30:46.739+01:002018-06-11T22:30:46.739+01:00The beds are very simple to make.

Sew them together on three sides, right sides facing. Turn them right sides on the outside, insert duvet, and sew up the fourth side. I did a few hand stitches in four places right through the middle to keep it flat and stop the duvet moving about inside the cover. <br /><br />They are just flat pieces of duvet, covered, and can be washed.

Sorry to hear you've had '...Afternoon Ilona<br /><br />Sorry to hear you've had 'some unpleasantness'. What a shame people feel the need to be like that. Isn't there enough badness going on in the world without making more for no good reason. Nuff said!<br /><br /><br />Oooh… you're making dog beds! I have looked on Utube on how to make a dog bed, but lost the will to live. Could/would you be willing to share how to make one? Or point me in the right direction. I know of a local (to me) lady who is rescuing dogs, and I thought about making some for her when she fosters the dog out. Love your homemade garden ornaments! Very eye-catching.<br /><br /><br />Hope weather is shining in your part of Lincolnshire too. Have a good afternoon.<br /><br /><br />CarolCarolnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3556657999892839298.post-17546594329518772882018-06-11T11:18:00.577+01:002018-06-11T11:18:00.577+01:00yorkshire lass here, i haven't looked at any c...yorkshire lass here, i haven't looked at any comments for a few days, i am just saying that the jewelled cutlery plants made me smile. also want to add, i tried to look at joannes 1940 house on the library computer and it was censored because of images of alcohol and smoking! ha! censorship gone mad, i am an adult and i think i can cope with that without being censored for my own good.yorkshire lassnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3556657999892839298.post-64718809497656704122018-06-11T10:49:10.049+01:002018-06-11T10:49:10.049+01:00Sorry you've been upset Ilona.
