In February I visited Quarry Bank National Trust, where they have an old working cotton mill.There I was shown the process of turning raw cotton into thread. The thread was then woven into fabric on the looms in the factory by the National Trust staff. The cloth was available to purchase in the shop and I loved the bee fabric so much I thought it would be perfect for a collection of bags. I could't find any buttons I liked so my husband suggested I made my own. At first I thought this was a bad idea but in the end I was pleased with the results and they make the bags more unique.
