Scrap Busting and Fishing line.....

You're thinking oh no....more scraps!  Yes, more scrap fabric and a piece of my millions of miles fishing line.  Helloooo I have to use what I have to make cute stuff so I can show it off here. Then wait for all you wonderful readers, or browsers of pictures to comment and make my day! (",)

Making things like this, makes me wish I had kids already.  I want sweet little birthday parties or lovely tea parties to decorate.  Can you totally tell that I want a girl.  Well I'll have to wait till that day comes. That's a topic for another day.  

I used scrap fabrics, pieces of tulle, thread, hot glue and fishing line.

I sandwiched the tulle between the 2 pieces of fabric. Pinched it in the center and sewed by machine.


I threaded a big needle with fishing line and sewed across the back of the bow.  Easy peasy....right!!!



I evenly separated the bows and put a dot of hot glue then wrapped with small pieces of fabric for the centers. (you can see this in the pic above)


I love how these turned out.  Now I have to decide what to do with it! 

Thanks for stopping by my page today.  Everyone have a great day.

  12. These are adorable! I really have to try and make some. Although, I don't know what I would use them for either. Maybe red, white and blue for the 4th of July. That would be nice! Thanks for the idea!
