my new pen
Last week I saw these pens on Trade me (nz), so i bought one to try . I've done a little sample of how it draws and the colour. It is lovely to draw on the fabric, fairly smooth and you get a fine line . They are called, 'air erasable' pen by 'sewline'. You trace your stitchery and the lines will stay anything from 2-10 days according to the packet. (I suppose that has to do with humidity in the air) If you want to remove it or change it then just dab with a cottonbud that is dampened with water. I use a gluepen by sewline also which is excellent! I think they were about $8.50.
(sorry this pic is not great ....'nosey norbitt' the kitten was being naughty!)
A couple of weeks ago I was in the salvation army shop, and saw this tapestry cushion . It was only $3.00 ! So i bought it. It had another cushion stuffed into it and had an ugly border around it so i pulled it apart and will put something much nicer around it or maybe put it in frame to keep it from getting wrecked and hang on the wall....
