Greenhouse



In my Textile Challenges group, we are doing a year long swap (every other month) of house fronts. This month - or rather, July, as I am running late this month - forgot I'd lose the first half of July to school and the last week to being away on holiday! - the theme I needed to work to was "Green house". I had fun with this - I wanted it to look like a greenhouse, without having to come up with a design that was too complicated. So I thought I'd try layering sheer fabric over the top of the house front to make it look as though it was all behind glass. I think it's come out quite well!

It's fabulous, Kate! This one is next up for me (Sept.) ... I have my idea, maybe I'll get it done early (yeah, right!).

Perfect! I love the sheer over the whole thing to have that "glassy" effect!
