    Recycled denim bag


    I’m still working on busy bags for my friend’s church. Slowly but surely I’ll get a dozen made. This one was made from another part of the denim slipcover I recently cut up. The quilt block came in a scrap bag I inherited. I decided to try out one of the “fancy” stitches on my machine to sew it on. I like the contrast of the red thread.

    Beads and sewing


    I made some more paper beads this morning. I could make these all day if left to my own devices but that just doesn’t happen around here.

    I also made up another “busy bag“.


    I cut a denim slipcover from an old chair for the back and handles. The lining is cut from an old tablecloth that had a couple stains in all the wrong places.
    I love recycling!!!!
