Zakka Along, Patchwork Ribbon Inspiration

I wanted to link you all to 2 of our sew along partipants who’ve finished the patchwork ribbon.

A few people started the project and found it to be hard to deal with because of the raw edges and the fraying threads.

Linda and Simone came up with 2 alternative and creative ways to make the ribbon.

They inspired me and I thought they might inspire you to!

    I really enjoyed putting my ribbon together, not following a colour at all, just picking up what was under my fingers and adding it next….ReplyCancel
