    300th post with an Earth Day tribute


    I was shocked to see I’m already at 300!

    This ATC is made of items that would have been recycled anyway. My way has a little more visual appeal. I used a cereal box, a wallpaper sample and green magazine images. I decided to sew the wallpaper to the cereal box so I wouldn’t have to use glue. Of course I could have cut letters from the magazine to spell my message but a white gel pen was so much quicker.

    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.
