Also stitching

I have just started the 'What If' Diaries over at Jude's site.
9 patch white

Why can't I type where I want. The pieces below this piece came from an Indian restaurant
They throw these away after use I am going to try and rescue some more, until I have nine at least. The not so white piece is less white than it looks in the photo and just didn't work on a white background.
Detail

Rescued
 I am starting with white, this is three layers of very fine cotton lawn, stitched and then the top two layers were cut. Maybe a mistake to cut, but only practice pieces.
Not so white

  1. Oh how fun! I keep thinking I want to do the 'what if' but never get around to it. Someday! What a find with the fabric from the Indian restaurant. I'll look forward to see your 'what if' as it moves along.
