- The black panel in the centre I purchased last year at a Sydney Craft Show. I normally get a card or something to say where I purchased the item, but there was nothing in the bag when I took the black panel out. I am going to the same craft show on the 16th June 2010 and I am hoping to find more of these panels at one of the stands. If I find the panels, I will let you know where you can purchase the panel as it is stunning. I will notify you in the customer newsletter.
- 4 black tassels
Stitch the following panels:
For each panel I hooped the silk with cotton fabric, then slid the hoop into the machine. Under the hoop I then slid the “Cut Away” stabilizer.
