i took apart a very old well loved quilt recently. okay it was literally disintegrating. i had to have it.

i salvaged most of the top and back. i am now making pot holders. throw pillow tops and even a quilted xmas tree decoration with three small pieces. will look so cute when I'm done.

will post photos at some point. most will be gifts. paid $$25 for quilt. would get a couple hundred if sold retail after creative redo. the quilt pattern is log cabin. one of my favorites.

Some smaller pieces will end up as decoration on my favorite overshirt. that is something you can do, decorate someones shirt for them.

you creative types have it easy. gift your creative efforts. i recycle alot.

yes. i am a hoarder. my name is Sweet Bliss.
