It’s 20% wool, also 6% viscose, the rest is acrylic.
I just use a basic cold wash.
Hand washing might work well, thanks.

It should be okay with the acrylic being the main component. You can pop in with your other clothes and dry on a rack or on top of the dryer.
 
I finally got all the pieces cut out for my next quilt.
I am desperate to start sewing it together, but I go away in 2 days and the family members staying at home said I can't take over the whole dining room table with quilt pieces when I won't even be here - so unreasonable!

Fabric > dinner. Well, unless you're a guinea pig. Also I have some of that bee fabric!

So this is a braid I haven't done in forever and I kept trying to do my usual one on autopilot. Still, good to get out of some habits.

Those fabrics work so well together. It’s going to be bright and cheery.

I wish, it took 12 attempts and a lot of cursing to sew a dart earlier. One tiny dart. The first time was irritating, but the bobbin was empty, these things happen. Why I then needed to rethread the needle 11 times afterwards I'll never know. 😒:td:

Agh those pesky bobbins :yikes: .
But the result is well worthwhile. Bailey is great.

Bunny!

He's the bunny version of the larger bear pattern (bunny, bear and dog) but honestly I probably won't do it again. The way those ears have to be cut means you lose much more fabric than you do with the bear. Upside, though, is that the ears are easier, no having to stuff them before they get stictched closed.

Those ear ribbons are stitched on btw. Not the cleanest of stitches but it was the only way to make the ribbons hold!

My mum was like "you're not making another one are you, what are you even going to do with them all" and of course I'm not. And I definitely wasn't pinning bits of calico together at the time.

I mean, what else am I supposed to do, play videogames all day? That's really boring after the first couple of weeks BTW.

Haha good you’re enjoying it, you’ve definitely got a talent for it! Can’t imagine they’re the easiest thing to start sewing as a newbie and they’ve all looked so lovely! I’d happily buy one! :D

Yeah totally get it, there’s only so many Pokemon you can catch :)) (Or poos you can pick up in my case as I don’t do the gaming thing other than a bit of scrabble on my phone! :xd:)
