Inspired by fields of British wildflowers gently waving in a warm breeze under the sun, this Wildflower Hot Water Bottle Cover will bring a little of that bright summer feeling to you throughout the cooler months. With different blooms in a range of cheery and warming colours, it is the perfect thing to cuddle up to with your hot water bottle.
Suitable for an advancing beginner sewer, it is constructed using a mixture of techniques which will help to enhance your sewing skills. The raw edge appliqué technique may be completed either by hand or with a sewing machine, the choice is up to you. It does require a bit of concentration, but is easily mastered and there is no end to the items you can make with this method of appliqué! Decoratively stitched stems act as quilting on the front and adds extra interest and details to the design.
This cover will fit a standard 2 litre hot water bottle.
