Making something out of .... everything! heheh

So, for my latest project, I have been trying to find ways of re-using the multitude of clothing that seems to accumulate when you love to vintage shop ;-) I have decided to use our (mine and my fiance's) old sweaters to make soft pillow covers then use the leftover pieces of sweaters to make sweater quilts. My new thing has been to make quilts mostly because you can make quilts out of almost anything. For example, this may seem strange to some people but, my fiance: Tim has been cleaning out his closet and threw out 20 pair of old boxers. So...I took those old boxers and am in the midst of making them into a quilt! hahaha I mean they were just so soft after having been worn for so long! I didn't just want to throw them out. Don't worry I have washed them well and am only using the good parts. I'll post pictures when I'm closer to having something done. ;-)
