I so need a weekend without little little kids to do some of these projects, but I can’t see myself enjoying a weekend without them. I’ll have to piece some time together. This is a great list Launi.
Hey, not sure if this is where I should post this question? Hope you can help! I am wanting to make T Shirt yarn out of a sheet. I did see in a former post abuot it, but no one said what type of sheets would be best?! 100% cotton? Or other? What do you think? Thanks so much .. love your site!
Well, I suppose it depends on what you are making with it. Cotton is lovely light, flannel would be soft and warm and knit would be very much like the T-shirt yarn. They would all make nice big rugs–for instance, but they would each be a bit different–in weight. I’ve wanted to make a bathroom rug out of some flannel sheets that are getting a bit worn, and I have tons of pretty cotton sheets too. Actually, I don’t think you’ll go wrong with any of the choices. Please show me what you make. :} Thanks so much for your kind words…and your comments!
I have and have made some of your snowflake hotpads. i love them. you mentioned that you make a different one for each month. could you possibly share them?
