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.

Gone Fishing.....

Well not really, maybe I will.  Just not now!  What I really wanted to show you was alllllllllllllllll of this fishing line that I picked up on a free cycle.   I think I'm set for life - regular fishing, deep sea fishing, big fish, little fish, monofilament line, cofilament, fly.  But I'm really not that great at fishing, what I am awesome at is creating.  


Can you imagine everything that I can do with this line?  I received 2 bags full of this.  All of the spools are pretty much full and most are still in un-opened packages.

Yay....I can't wait to get started on some projects using it.

Can you see how messy busy I've been?


This is my sewing table...I can't even get to my cutting mat.
