REFLECTIONS Scarf Festival

I posted my child's scarf originally back here.

I have entered it into a festival - not a competition although there is some element of that to it.

Did it for the experience mainly!

In the end, I really enjoyed the process - lots of design decisions were made along the way, that, thankfully, didn't cause too much angst.
My scarf has a range of vintage and modern fabrics, mini yo-yos, herringbone, running and cross-stitch, and self made fringing.

The Reflections Scarf Festival begins on Saturday (19th June - 25th July) in Geelong.

I suggest you spend a cold Victorian winter's day being warmed by the scarves made by many talented crafts people.

I am sure you will be impressed!



This is my friend Pam's scarf!

Don't you love the strong vibrant colour combination?
(In real life it is a beautiful olive green and a strong purple)
The colours and design reflect Pam's Scottish heritage. The scarf has these amazing "peaks" representing the Highlands.

This scarf certainly makes me happy!

I will up-date you when I have been to visit in a few weeks time.

Where have I been? Helping with our school production of Wizard Of OZ!! Writing school reports!
And finishing my quilt for the Scarf Festival held in Geelong, Victoria next month! Couldn't manage anything creative and competent in the knitting line, so resorted to sewing a summery type scarf from vintage fabric and notions.
Until next time,
