a picnic roll




in this lovely book there are lots of lovely things.
one of them is a picnic roll.
to store all your mismatched op shop cutlery and vintage napkins.
i am a picnic kind of person.
i have a lovely vintage picnic basket... but no special and lovely picnic utensils.
i usually just throw random things into my picnic basket which means i usually forget a sharp knife (i thought this through... you will notice a space for a sharp knife in the last photo).
i was inspired by these two lovely ladies who also made picnic rolls.
now i just need some sunshine and my favourite puppy (and some plates and cups but i have faith in my local oppies for this one)!

  5. What a fantastic idea. If I could sew better I would make one of these myself. I want to go on more picnics this summer.

  7. Love the tartan which gives it a very picnicy feel. Practical crafting is so satisfying isn't it? Thanks for the mention :)
