The long narrow rug fits next to the wall below the coat hooks in my mud room. Perfect muddy boots to sit on. The square one is just one of many used all the time. It needs washing :oops: Long narrow rug [ATTACH=CONFIG]170401[/ATTACH] Square rug [ATTACH=CONFIG]170402[/ATTACH] PDF how to [ATTACH=CONFIG]170403[/ATTACH] |

Curious, how many jeans pockets have you removed? Those suckers are sewn to STAY! I'll have to remember that. I just tried the seam ripper. Took a lot of work! |
I have taken the pockets and sewed them into coin purses. They sell well at shows and flea markets.

Yes, I use the denim damp for the overdye. I take it from the soda ash soak and wring it out good. If you are uncomfortable using fruit jars, use old mayo or peanut butter jars, they are plastic and you can't 'over-cram' them enough to break. The dye spreads better on damp fabric, but if you want an more angular 'broken glass' looking pattern, use it after it has dried.

Thanks Tootsie

Really like the idea of placemats and bandana napkins. That idea is going on my to-do list. Thanks.
