2017 - Table Talk Napkins
I was passing through Spotlight, and spied this cute box of colourful mercerised cotton fabrics, so bought it.
I thought it could serve for the cool Craftivist project 'Don't Blow It'
When I opened the box and shook out one of the fabrics, I saw it was significantly bigger than hanky size, more table napkin I thought,
so my 'Table Talk Napkins' project evolved...'stitch a message to inspire, encourage and provoke positive thought, as you share a meal with friends or family'.
I put the call out.."make a table napkin and stitch a message, a quote, a poem, something that will encourage thought provoking discussion around the dining table".
A couple of people took up the creative challenge.
I will post the various results in due course.
I have made a start on my first Table Talk Napkin! 6 to work through!
I have finally completed my 'Table Talk Napkins'
All to do with food and film.
And a special birthday napkin, for a special friend.

I have completed my last set of 'Table Talk Napkins'! (April 2019)
Quotes from Shakespeare, all to do with wine.
I imagine the table talk being, "Which play is this quote from?...What is it meaning"..Who said it and why...Does it relate to today?" The discussion could go on for hours over a couple of bottles of wine. Sounds like a good night to me!
