Hey ToucanSam,

My DH went off for Easter to visit his grandbabies. Elise is 4, almost 5 and the little one is 1. I sent him with quilts for the girls, of course, and a bunch of scraps from the the quilts, brushes and modpodge along with the project sheet for making a fabric bowl from Moda Bakeshop. Grandpa and Elise had a great time making a matching Easter bowl.

I think this is "upcycling"!

I do a lot of magnetic fridge picture frames for my friends using scraps. People with kids and pets just love them.

That sounds like so much fun. I need to try that with DGD.

You ladies really get me to thinking!! I was getting ready to throw out some teeny tiny scraps and now I can't get rid of them. They probably would be really cute as a mosiac on something. All these ideas and no time!!! :lol: :lol:

I made a mat to go under my dogs bowl. It's called a floorquilt and you make it using by glueing fabric to canvas then decoupodge it. The pic didn't turn out too good but you can get the idea.
