Hooray! I finally was able to make it to 25 cent day at the thrift outlet store. I got several pairs of jeans to cut up for denim chenille squares- most in the regular denim color but also in black, red, and purple. I got two suit jackets, and what I plan on doing with them is just to take them apart to see how they’re made. I use to know how to construct something similar many years ago! I just don’t remember, and taking a couple of them apart will jog my memory. I also got some things to wear around the house, and a yellow smiley face pillow case.
These are some things I got that I want to alter, or transform.
This is a basic knit skirt that is a little too big around the waist and reaches my ankles. I want to take it in, and shorten it so it’s calf length.
I just want to take off those sleeves and make it sleeveless.
I only bought this because it was formal looking. It might just be a tulle stash.
I was going to do something with this then my daughter said she wants it.
I’m just going to cut the top off and make this into a skirt.
I can do a lot of things with sheer fabric that has daisies on it.
I can make this into a halter top and use the bottom for headbands or something
We are actually going to hang this on the wall as a tapestry. I love this.
I could wear this or I could alter it into a more fitted shirt.
Cute scarf, many possibilities.
Round tablecloth just going to be used for fabric.
I cut the buttons off of this and saved the rest for the blue row of the rainbow denim chenille quilt.
This is thin denim so I saved the elastic and shoelace in my sewing kit and saved the rest for squares.
Not pictured, I also got a large scarf that’s plain black sheer. I can do a lot with it.
