I found this idea on the Urban Threads site so I used a test stitchout to try it. I wish I'd left the stabiliser in place behind the white fabric.

Lovely idea

I'm afraid it is too late now I've pulled some of the stabiliser out.

Years back, a similar 'container' was constructed to house paper cake doilies. Give it a try!

Very nice idea looks great. Almost a flower star shape at the bottom.

great idea

What a great idea. Thanks for sharing Sue.

Fabulous idea!!!

Still, it looks quite nice. I wonder could you pin a flower or something on the lower part to cover the lining showing through?

I might just remake it with a different stitchout!

Whatever you do, I am sure it will be lovely!

Neat idea! Thank you for sharing. K

Looks very nice. I agee, this project needs a bit more support in the fabrics to make a sturdy pocket. This is good use for your test stitch-out.

The test design was a square - I cut it in half and added a lining the same as the back fabric. The white fabric is loosely woven so the colour of the lining shows where there is no stabiliser at the bottom.

What a neat idea Sue, looks fab :)

good idea
