Smocking!

I've always been fascinated by smocking. There is something feminine about it. My cousin came to visit on the weekend and brought me a surprise.











This smocking pleater belong to her mother, my aunt. I was very excited. Meg, my cousin hasn't had a chance to use it so she decided I could play for a while.








Now I have to confess I have absolutley no idea what to do with the pleater but I sure can't wait to learn. I now have a Christmas Holiday project. Can't wait.

You'll have such fun with the pleater Trish. I have one gathering dust in my fabric cupboard and I intend to get back to some smocking next year.

Hope you are keeping cool!
