Day 277-I found a use for all those scraps!

Since I bought all those fabric swatches from resource rescue I have been trying to come up with good uses for lots of small scraps of lovely patterned fabric.
Tonight I have used these fabrics to make frills... see the process below,

I traced around a long top of mine and made a pattern

 worked out how many frills I needed

 cut long strips 5cm wide, sewed a gathering stitch and pinned them in place

 I used chalk to draw the lines on the fabric exactly where the frills needed to be pinned so that they were evenly spaced

 I am also thinking of adding the frills on the bottom half on the back (to hide my lumps and bumps)

This will have to be a 2 day project, its 11.41pm

time for bed

craft out
