Hobbytex​

Ah, Hobbytex! It was quite the sensation in the ‘70s, transforming plain items into vibrant works of art. Back then, everything got the Hobbytex treatment—pictures, doilies, clothes, pillows; you name it! It’s great to see that Hobbytex is still around today. Do you still have any of those colourful creations?

Still have a large tablecloth that I painted about 30/35 years ago, it is cream fabric with a trail of orange flowers and leaves ,I crocheted around it, rarely use it now
