Jill asked me to do an underwater scene for her. I have had a scarf with wavy ends for ages and thought it would make a good jellyfish so that was the starting point. I wanted a bit more colour so decided to do some Suffolk Puffs with some batik fabric I had in my stash.
The circle for the small ones was the lid of a glass yoghurt pot and the larger ones were a mug. They are very easy, you just do a running stitch all round the edge, pull it tight and iron them flat. You can stuff them to create fuller ones and line them with a different colour and not pull up as tight.
I am pleased with the end result and think I will make some pink flowery ones next for hollock flowers. I can see a window in France, with blue shutters and hollyhocks.
