Stash enhancement
After getting involved in Chaletgirl’s vintage sheet swap, I started having a bit of a Ebay fabric frenzy. I regretted it when it came time to individually pay out 20 amounts of less than $8, but the fabric has been arriving….
These vintage sheets and yardage. I need to start thinking about what I want to make from vintage sheets. Sleepwear seems an obvious choice, but these are small pieces.
Some hand marbled fabric. This is quite thick, like cotton drill. I might make a cover for something from it. Not sure how sturdy the paint job will be, though.
And I got some patchwork pieces, ranging from 6 inch charms to multipacks of 2.5 inch squares. I have been coveting this Sugarcube Pincushion tutorial, so I spent some time picking out some squares this afternoon.

How many pincushions can one girl have? Doesn’t matter, I know some crafters. I am looking forward to paper piecing again, which I haven’t done since primary school.
