Playing with Fabric

6/18/2016

I woke up this morning with a million ideas.  I just started writing them down so I could get them out of my mind and concentrate on just one thing today...playing with fabric.  I had a big pile of  bits and pieces and I just started sewing them together.  I made 4 different collaged pieces.  Once I was done I  looked for boxes and things I might like to cover.  I started with a vintage knitting tote.  I made one side that represents knitting and the other side that represents sewing, that way it's more versatile.  .  I'm going to fill it up with yarn and some knitting needles.

Once I was through with the tote I started working on a box used for embroidering.  It makes a perfect start up kit for someone, or just a special place to keep your items together.  If this doesn't sell I will give it to one of my student's next year.  Kids love to do this type of sewing and it is a great way for them to learn the basics.
