I do however still have a dress my mother made herself (probably in the late 50's or early 60's) It's red brocade & none of us fit in it (she was really tiny even after having children!)but I just haven't found the right project to make out of it yet. Someday I will!!!
perhaps a really nice pillow for your bed?
You can add piping or lace, applique or just a ruffle.
You'll be able to see it everyday
