A freind of mine name Nelda gave me a pile off her UNWANTED quits.....
can you imagine such a thing..
this one was kinda chopped up ...
but I was determined to make a few things from it...
this Apron is one of the things I have done..
I know it might seems a bit heavey...
but the quilting is quite thin
Then I made this rose zipper flower from a reclaimed sweater
and the leaves are from the same quilt as the apron
I had fun with this project
I love my apron
and my flower
I love using reclaimed materials
and making them new again.

Well, you clever, crafty girl! I love what you did with the quilt and zipper. You'll be the hottest number in the kitchen, that's for sure! (I love the sassy ruffles!)

Sweet zipper flower! The ruffles and quilted top portion all make for a fun apon! Great recycling/refashioning!

What a fun project and such a pretty way to use an unloved quilt! I have a couple in my cupboard that I just can't bring myself to part with, even though they are showing distinct signs of wear. Hmmm...maybe I can come up with some creative way to use them.
Hi DeeDee.... Do you sell your goodies? I'd love to buy something like this!
I just threw away a tattered quilt this morning! I thought it was beyond hope and I throw NOTHING away! Now I see what I could do with it.....I will be trash diving tonight!
