I am in awe of all the clever people in this group but I think you win the prize!!!!

Tiffany, I have used it for piping...back when I made little girl's clothes. I wouldn't have thought to use it in stems of applique.........so thanks. I may do that, too.

Do any of you watch DECORATING CENTS on HGTV? I love that little segment in there, "Trash to Treasure". I can't find it on very much anymore. On there, they really do take pieces of junk and make something useful.

Oh, Minda. Just kidding. Now that all the hard work and stress of the holidays is over, we deserve to be a little giddy before we get down to some serious quilting and other things in 2008. Yeah! :wink:

I knew you were kidding. I was just playing along. :mrgreen:

What other things are you going to use your strings for?

Onthego, you are so creative! That is a neat idea and I absolutely love that purse!

You have got to be kidding!!!!!!!!! You should definitely win a contest, award, BIG prize for that one! YOU GO GIRL!!!!!

how neat this that. Love the purse, great way to recycling. Great idea.
