SWEATSHIRT CARDIGAN
I TOOK A MEN'S LARGE SWEATSHIRT, MADE IT INTO A SMALL. THEN CUT IT UP THE FRONT.CREATED THE SCALLOPED PLACARD FROM THE EXCESS FABRIC,AND ADDED THOSE VERY COLORFUL HAND BUTTONS. I THINK IT CAME OUT OK.
PIN CUP
I liked the egg cup idea, but i don't have one, so i used the old top of a roll on deodorant bottle. it works
CAPRIS
MY SISTER ASKED ME TO FIX HER RIPPED SLEEP CAPRIS, AND THEY COULD NOT BE SALVAGED, SO I TOOK THEM APPART USED THEM AS A PATTERN AND MADE THESE, OUT OF FABRIC I GOT AT A YARD SALE FOR PENNIESWHO...
SCARFFLETT
I SAW THIS IN CRAFSTYLISH, SHE DID ONE IN ONE NIGHT TO GIVE TO A LAST MINUTE CHRISTMAS GUEST, I THOUGHT IT WAS A FABULOUS IDEA, AND I MADE 9 IN ONE WEEKEND. THESE FOUR ARE JUST WHAT I HAVE LEFT...
TEE CARDIGAN
THIS WAS A BLAST TO MAKE, I DID IT IN ONE NIGHT,IT'S HARD TO SEE BECAUSE I TOOK THE PICTURE WITH MY CELL PHONE, BUT IT CAME OUT REALLY GOOD
Doggy bag
I DIDN'T GLUE NOSE AND EYES ON, I JUST DID IT ALL WITH YARN, BUT I THINK IT CAME OUT ALRIGHT.
