Farmhouse Fridays

I am sitting down today and repurposing a pile of clothes that were given to me I will turn them into leg and arm warmers and neck scarves and neck cowls .......   I have a stack of xmas cartoon dvds i want to watch and just enjoy a day of sewing . It is a good way for me to sit down and destress. 
I will have pics up in the morning of what I created from this lovely piles of unloved clothes ..I know the blue striped shirt is going to def be made into leg warmers and neck cowl for me :) 
I recently found out that I now have to wear a leg brace all the time and i find that the legwarmers are perfect to pad it and to hide it somewhat .

Some will be given as gifts..some i will keep and the rest sold in my little Etsy store to help pay bills.

Here are pics of ones I made last year from more old sweaters and sweat shirts........... i unraveld some of the sweaters for yarn and made into hat and scarf set..........then more arm and leg warmers and smaller scraps into bags and small pursed and potholders.........
















Be sure to stop by The Renegade Farmer to what everyone else is up to this cold December day ... HERE

  1. LOL - I have that potholder and denim bag. The potholder is the BEST! - I'll post that anywhere. Better than store-bought and any other handmade I've ever seen.

    I use the little bag for my MP3 player. :D
