My first play with In-R-Form. Well I tracked some down here in England (not easy) and paid an arm and a leg! The pile of fabric came from USA in a friends luggage. (She always likes to bring me a challenge.) The pieces are silky brocades, probably from a tie factory. Very slippery and with miles of fraying threads hanging off every edge. Having said that, the foam worked very well indeed and I'm quite pleased with the result.

Love them - did you actually do these by hand?

NO!

I like your work. Lizell is bringing me some in 2 weeks time. I will let you know how I found it. Very expensive!!!

That's a great bag, Sue!
Hugs, Lidia

This is a really great bag. You're always so creative.

Very nice. I am looking for other ways to use in-r-form

Rosakent is using hers to make a doll's Mose's basket. I'm sure she will show us when it is done.

I've the rag doll to make first so I know how big to make it! Jo

Looks great Sue. Well done on your challenge. :-)

Thanks!

I love what you have done! Do you stitch directly on to the foam? I have some but have yet to work with it.
Hugs, Nadyne

The patchwork is built up on the foam - stich and flip.

Great work Sue - you are always so inventive. Love the colours.

Hi Sue, your bag with the random nice fabric looks great. I want to make such a bag too and have ordered my R-Form from England, because I could not get it here in Austria or Germany. Hoping to have soon enough time to sew.

How strange - I couldn't find it in England and bought from Amazon, it came from Germany - Jo

This is a great start to your bags Sue. You will want to keep making these now. They are so much fun. Love Chris

Well done. I have the same problem, my children always laugh when I call something random, according to them don't know the meaning of the word.
Love the colours and the silky stuff looks great.

Yes i am very proud of you .Well done Sue Hugs

Very nice Sue, last year I wanted something a little stiffer than batting when making a bag. I wet to the garden centre and bought some capillary matting which worked well. G
