I have been evesdropping for some time and really love this site so thought I should introduce myself.
I have been sewing most of my life. First doll clothes then clothes for my daughter then on to crafts and now interested in quilting. I recycle blue jeans into purses and made one small lap quilt with 2 inch blue jean squares.
Now I am in the process of making 9 small memory throws from my mothers polyester pants. I have 5 finished, 2 tops done and blocks done for the other 2. (I am sick of stretchy polyester!!) I hope her grandchildren will appreciate having these memories.
