Here are 2 things, so I’m counting them as thing 13 and thing 14. They are coasters! I made them with some groovy vintage fabric scraps and a heavy-weight, double-sided fusible interfacing called fast2fuse. The extra stitching throughout the coasters makes them nice and firm. Now they will go on my coffee table.
Tonight, I used some of my favorite fabric to make a pin. I got about 4 yards of the forest-print fabric at a garage sale a few years ago and it’s my favorite fabric find ever. I put interfacing on the back for support, and then layered the sage green fabric on top of it. Then I finished it of with embroidery loops in the center. And a fastener in the back.
I made this tissue cozy from a pattern at www.burdastyle.com. It was super easy to make. I got the vintage fabric from a garage sale.
This is a crochet hook case that I made out of vintage fabric. It matches the needle case I made on Day 3. It has elastic holders for all of my hooks and scissors, and three pockets for patterns, secret stuff, and cool stuff. I really haven’t figured out what to put in them, but pockets are always useful. It closes with an old button I found in my grandma’s basement.
I made this needle case out of vintage fabric I found at a garage sale. It has cotton batting on the inside to keep the needles from sticking out the back. A really simple project, but very useful. I’ll probably make a crochet hook case out of this fabric later.
