I am doing it the old fashioned way – by hand – quilters muslin foundation.
There is a wonderful shop full of antique or special fabric near where I work. I have bought a 1/4 m each of 2 silk velvets, a 1/4 m of a handpainted silk, and 1/4 m of a truely fabulous silk tartan. Then I bought a piece of jade dupioni and a piece of cream dupioni from my local fabric shop. Adding this to what I already have stashed away and I’m on my way!
I have bought a nice big piece of quilters muslin for the foundation.
I have washed and dried it to ensure it is pre shrunk.
Thats all so far.
