This particular fabric, not satin like the rest, really soaked up the glue more than the others. I'm really curious to see what happens with the next step - painting it with bleach water and then rinsing.
This is what my son was doing while I was making glue patterns and photographing the fabrics below.
He's my little green eating machine.
(This is a very wide angle shot, the container isn't really that big - it only looks like he could fit in it, but he can't.
This is one of the quilts that my grandma made. It's mostly polyester.
It has a lot of tears like this that I'd like to fix but I'm not sure how. Any suggestions?
I'm starting a flannel collection, mostly made of men's XXL shirts, that I'd like to make a nice warm (probably ugly) quilt out of. On Thursdays at Savers all the tags of a specific color are only $.99 no matter what the price tag says. Today's color was orange.
I've been looking for polyester to fix grandma's quilt and I've also been looking for modern red patterns for Christmas stuff and this skirt fit both items so, even though it was more than one dollar, I got it today.
More of the orange-tag $.99 clothes to add to my black pile.
And something new: bright, spring colors. I have no idea what I'll do with them but I couldn't resist.
The orange and yellow fabrics are actually fabric, not clothing, and they were more than $.99 but I decided it was worth it after looking at prices of some fabrics online.
The whole lot of them.
It was a good day.
