Folk on the Lawn: Cottage Stage

 This was promised to the organisers of Folk on the Lawn, held on 9th July for 4 days in Tintern. All monies raised are divided up between the bands.

 I am so glad to have this finished in good time. Fabric was saved from landfill by Gloucester Scrapstore. They are a lovely bunch.

 

2 banners one in Welsh and 1 in English.

The reverse is silvery and reflective, so i made that the main fabric side.

12 swags to go across the front of the stage without blocking the view of the bands.

14 curtains. 4 to each side and 6 to the rear.

Just stocking stitch for the bodice and sleeves with doubled over garter stitch for the neck band and cuffs. Single garter stitch for the button bands.
