I lost my job last August after working in the Automotive Industry HR for 9 years! I am very limited to funds so I try and make things out of stuff that is no longer needed! Plus I have problem throwing things away !!!! No realy I need to go to a Dr. for this !!!LOL I love fabric !!!! My stash of fabric is old clothes, old linens. Some times when I have a idea for something and can't afford fabric, I go to my closet and look around and ask myself are you realy ever going to lose the weight to wear that ??? no probaly not any time soon!!! So than it is made into something else!!! I have always wanted a craft, second time around store!!!

I wish I could figure out how to make a income from this way of crafting !!!!
Saw this at the hardware store the other day when I went to get a belt for the vac. I need one !!!! so now I am saving Cans from veggies and one from coffee,asked GH can you eat sardines? he did tell me after seeing what I wanted to make , get our own funnel LOL [ATTACH=CONFIG]160242[/ATTACH] |
This pattern did not work for the kitchen , the main materal is not sewing fabric at all , staple it or glue only , some type of backing on it and it messes with my machine !!!! So solid brown valances and just stool cushions out of the print , that I have stapled ,accent with other colors. Now trying to figure out what to do for the towels ? can't sew that fabric!!!
Post when it comes to me !!!! This did inspire me to destore my stash digging !!! now I gotta clean that mess up and didn't find anything that jump up !!!! I did decover inkjet printable fabric today !!! Oh am I going to have fun with this stuff !!!! |
What a mess , I have been through all my stash, only a couple things are working for me , not much sewing today , but a lot of digging !!!! LOL
Now I have got to clean this up !!!! There is no way I want to face this in the morning !!!!!! |
Wow, I love the Bible quilt!
