FO and use tail to close up hole. Weave in the ends.
Using black fabric paint, daub a little face onto the gold foil of the champagne bottle: allow to dry.
In white felt, cut a rectangle about 2” x 4”. If adding a message, embroider or paint it on now.
Apply fabric glue to the side of the label that you don’t want showing. Pin the felt in place on the front of the bottle and allow to dry.
Come back next week to make some fancy glassware with us!
PART TWO
Welcome back to the party! It’s time to grab your hooks and make a few glasses to raise in toast.

Rnd 14: in BLO, sc in each sc around (44) - starting to build the outside of the glass.
Rnds 15-17: sc in each sc around (44)
Roll these last 4 rounds down over the interior of the coupe glass, like rolling down the cuff of a sock. Round 13 should form the rim of the glass. Continue working with the interior and exterior of the glass folded like this (we’re working down the glass now, we’ll be decreasing to match the shape of the bowl, and then we’ll start building the stem).

FO
Sew the two discs together with the right sides facing out (wrong sides together).
Add a little stuffing to the stem of the glass, and a folded piece of floral wire for stability. Sew the end of the stem (round 35 of the glass) to the center of the base.
If the interior bowl of the glass isn’t keeping its shape because of the little bit of stuffing we added, weave the end up through the stem of the glass and through the center of the cup, then back down (making a small stitch, don’t go back through the same hole you came up through) to pin the interior of the cup down through the stem. Weave in the ends.

Sew the two discs together with the right sides facing out (wrong sides together).
Add a little stuffing to the stem of the glass, and a folded piece of floral wire for stability. Sew the end of the stem (round 43 of the glass) to the center of the base.
If the interior bowl of the glass isn’t keeping its shape because of the little bit of stuffing we added, weave the end up through the stem of the glass and through the center of the cup, then back down (making a small stitch, don’t go back through the same hole you came up through) to pin the interior of the cup down through the stem.
