Canvas Bag

I inherited a number of embroidery transfers from my mother in law and wanted to use this one in its entirety - text and date (1936). To achieve this I glued the transfer to some muslin and then free machined over the design. I then faffed around for months trying to decide what to do with it and couldn’t commit to anything. Then during Coronavirus lockdown I spontaneously stitched it to a canvas bag as it really wasn’t a big deal in the great scheme of things.
