Checkbook Covers (recycled materials)

Checkbook Covers (recycled materials)

Posted by Knottylady Designs Showstoppers on 4/2/2007
Fun fabrics which are no longer used can be made into a multitude of useful items. It is fun to take one of these out of my purse to write a check when necessary and it is even easier to find my checkbook. Made of recycled fabric & lace, these are lovely and very functional. I have people ask me where I purchased them and they are so easy and fun to sew. Lined with a soft white cotton fabric & light weight batting in between the layers. Enjoy!

Trendy or traditional ; pretty and petite are perfect adjectives for these gorgeous knitted , felted & needle felted bags. Until I have a bag in the works and complete it; I have never "FELT" this kind of passion for an art form which is not unique to this era but has been handed down though generations and has become more popular for bags, slippers,mittens, scarves and anything that can be knitted with the gorgeous wools on the market along with so many beautiful novelty yarns. I hope that you enjoy looking at my felted pieces as much as I enjoy the whole process from hand spun yarn to kettle dyeing to the final felting process it is a challenging and fulfilling artform. The process of needle felting adds decorative wool 'pictures' to my finished felted pieces & at times gives the piece a three dimentional look. It is a very rewarding process. I have used many mediums and this is one of my favorites because it is like 'PAINTING WITH YARN". My theme bags/totes are exciting to create but I have other artistic creations that I will enjoy sharing with you. Thank You for stopping by. Patricia Maxwell
