Well, because I’m not one for working accurately possibly this random pleating was the right thing for me?!

Recycled Roses
I find these roses from fabric or paper most beautiful, even without wreath!
And it seems that they are easy to make, which does no harm! ;-))
They should look great for jewelry, too, for a ring or earring e.g.?!
If they’re not exactly your cup of tea simply look for flowers from fabric or flowers from paper ;-)

Sewn Potholders
I find these sewn potholders soo beautiful!
I even tried it once but it didn’t work: I wanted to sew on spirals, but the stitching made the fabric pucker up completely although I made the stitch length as long as possible.
Probably the needle thread tension was too high or the like, I have to try it once more.
Somewhen ;-))

Fabric/Paper Place Mat
When I saw these place mats I was compleeetly thrilled: that’s exactly what I love so much!
She seems to use as well fabric as paper – many of these self coloured.
And I do love to work with paper, e.g. at my paper shopping bag or my paper Crazy Quilt ;-)

Textile Roses
Don’t these look wonderful?
And here also it seems that the little roses are quite easy to make – although it seems that you have to be very careful.
A point on my list again ;-)

Fabric Stone Necklace
The fabric stone necklace is another fabric necklace, but this time with a pendant that gives a little weight.
Anyway, I like it :)

No-wax Batik
What a wonderful idea: to batik reasonably priced with children without getting it dangerous for the little ones she simply uses washable (school) glue!
And what children can do, I can, too.
Very often ;-)))
By the way, she uses watered down acrylic colours to colour everything in.
Great!

No Sew Fingerless Gloves
It’s right, you don’t have to sew these fingerless gloves but you must know how to knot ;-))
I find them cute!

Toga Pattern Generator
The day before yesterday I told you that I was looking for online pattern generators and then I found also the toga pattern generator.
What an idea! ;-))
In any case I thought that Carnival (Fasching) is really near now and possibly the newspaper dress doesn’t suit you, then such a toga could be an alternative?! ;-))

Upcycled Sweater Boots
Still have some old sweaters? Make such a boot from them!
Another great idea, isn’t it? :)
As good as the Sweater Scarf and the yarn from sweaters ;-)
And if you don’t have a sweater to recycle, take t-shirts ;-))
