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.

Those of you who know about my problems with randomness should be proud of me!

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

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.

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.

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.

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