An Idea For A Scrap Quilt
Here is a quilt constructed of squares that have been joined with bindings...the denim fabric used in this quilt is from the discarded jeans of my daughters. This quilt was a great way to use up remnant pieces of fabric. Notice all the pieces of fabric contain the colour blue. This quilt was constructed using the quilting technique 'quilt as you go'. With is technique you can make the quilt as big as you wish or as small.

Create Your Own Fabric
Have you ever wondered how to transfer your favorite photo onto fabric and use in a project.
For some fun l took 4 photos of lollies. Please click on the following link to view all 4 photos

Do feel free to download these photos and use.
I bough a packet of adhesive paper from my local stationary store.
Gently peeled the backing off the paper and placed the sticky backing onto the wrong side of a piece of plain white fabric.
Trimmed off all the side edges.
As this will go thru an inkjet printer there must be no overhang.
Placed the backed fabric into the paper tray of my inkjet printer.
Then printed off my design.
I will rinse the fabric in vinegar to seal it.
