    Two hours and seven juice cans got me a new footstool and a creative reuse/recycle lesson for my homeschooled second grader. I even have enough of these fabrics leftover to make some throw pillows to go with my new earth tone green living room furniture. I know it's not quilting but I just finished a large quilt top and needed a daybreak before I started to quilt the layers.

    It's still drying so there's some pins holding the fringe in place as the fabric glue dried.

    I am still admiring this creativity. Do you have a bottom panel on this? Did you have to do a lot of hand stitching!
