Stockton Carnival embroidered banners


I've been busy sewing banners for the finale area of Stockton Carnival. I decided to work on them in Norway and I'm really pleased I did because I was finally introduced to the wonder of the overlocker! I can't believe I've never tried one before! Fantastic! Anyway - Stockton Carnival is on Saturday 6th August. I'm dusting off a pink wig and an extravagant clown gown for the occasion. There will be over a thousand beautifully costumed people along with dancers, drummers and performers. Keep your fingers crossed for sunshine!
