On your bike …

or maybe, your moped!

I’m SO excited by this fabric. I bought just a little of it in Bath on Saturday and the panels are magnificently detailed, black & white images of mopeds – or Vespas.

I decided to stay with the monochrome theme and have used pure wools – one check and the pure black to provide what I hope is a suitably stylish backdrop for a super stylish scooter! A bit of sparkle, in the silver ric-rac braid just completes a very retro cushion.

Let’s have a closer look …

What do you think?

There are lots more panels and I’ll probably stray from monochrome at some point, but at the moment – I’m loving it!

So, on your bike and pop over to Handmade Harbour where Wendy is hosting another Handmade Monday.

Have fun!

This is amazing material. No wonder you love it. I think that the monochrome works really well although a bit of colour would not be terrible – I am sure you will do it very sympathetically!

What amazing fabric. The scooter really stands out. I think the monochrome design is great and very effective.
