Today I vowed to start cleaning up the sewing area and take time for some sewing. Things got thrown in that space prior to and during the holidays.
Although I pressed a couple of garments, most of my time was spent finishing up some French-seam pillowcases I had begun. Then, I rewarded myself by making up a pair of Christmas fabric cases rather than put the uncut fabric in storage!! UFO and one new project--right?
We enjoy heavy terry washcloths, so will work on some UFO cuts tomorrow.
RECYCLE project: beautiful long staple cotton terry towels had bands which shrank up to half the size of the width of the towel.
I cut the towels up in squares and gently curved the corners.
With some rows of three-step zigzag stitching, I'll have nicely finished edges and recycle at the same time. My outlay will be the cost of the 1200 yard spool of thread. Pretty good bargain, in my book...
What are you recycling?????????
Piecefully yours,
Kay Susan
