River Scarves

I've been doing a few sewing projects and having a lot of fun with this one.

River Scarves

I love binding things together with thread, making shapes, following the fabric and creating organic, meandering lines.  I used some old pieces of linen that I had to make these scarves whose color and shape made me think of meandering rivers.  I simple fold part of the fabric over and sew it onto itself.  I don't plan ahead or use pins but just follow the flow of the stitching down the fabric.  It adds a bit of new texture and shape to the fabric.  Perfect for a fall scarf.
