Creations from Clutter Week 6

Last night I was looking through my scrap drawer. It was about 12:15 am. I didn't want to go to bed without making one more thing. I came across one of my  all time favorite fabrics. I had found this vintage feedsack at an antique shop several years ago. I made a skirt with it that sold within days of listing it. I kept the scraps and when I saw them last night, I decided another kitty was in order. This one I named Mabel because it has that country vintage ring to it. She is just a little kitty; not itty bitty like some in my shop, and not a full sized pillow pal either. But she is definitely very sweet! Though I really didn't use up much clutter in the making of Mabel, I do feel good about giving life and purr-sonality to an otherwise lifeless scrap! 



Clicking on Mabel will take you to my Catcalls shop where you will find many plush pillow pals!

Creations from Clutter Week 2!
Here I am with my 2nd week of de-clutter crafting! These projects are from left over wool and fleece that I am sure I picked up at a thrift store LONG ago. You know how it is. You walk into the thrift store and see something that just catches your eye for no particular reason. But you know it has "potential" - so you scarf it up. Months, maybe years later, you wonder what on earth possessed you to buy such a thing. I know you are the same...admit it! This weekly post is a challenge to you as well to de-clutter and create something fun, useful, cool, strange...whatever! I would love to see and hear about your own creations and feature them here!
