From this ...
(ugly still-unpainted wall and yucky torn plastic)
to this ...
(Anairam's version of pojagi - made from an old sample book of discontinued curtain fabrics and a few other bits and pieces.)
Inspired by annekata's post on pojagi here.
I just love annekata's projects and informative posts - she has awakened in me an interest in sewing by hand. It is incredibly meditative. So much so that at times I even forget about The Neighbour's Horrible House.

I've been looking at your pojagi now for over 10 minutes straight. What a beautiful way of converting an undesirable view into a wonderful new focal point. Ha! What a stunning piece you've created.
Love everything about it - the hand stitching, soft colors, fabric choice and little bits of lace you incorporated.
This is just beautiful! That is why I knit - because I find the movement of the needles and feel of the fiber between my fingers to be very meditative.
A fine improvement on the view. Good work...no beautiful work.
So beautiful!It must have been a lot of fun to make!
Your blind is lovely - and so much better for your peace of mind to look at it instead of the ugly house! You should have a try at traditional patchwork - piecing over papers, sitting stitching little tiny stitches is very soothing!!
simply superb!
Wat is die storie met die bure se huis?
so nice, that curtain!
i'm curious too about 'die verschrikkelijke buur' :-)
totally taken with this! wow!
It's beautiful - I keep coming back to your post to just look at it a bit longer. I think I'm going to dig out those worn linen trousers I've been keeping so long - I know what to do with them now!! Thank you, for the inspiration..
