Recycle, Fabric, Portraits

Did you buy more fabric?  Who me?  What a silly thing to be thinking about me.
I got this one for the leaves!  [guess that's a bit of a no brainer, since that's the whole print]
Boxes getting ready for mailing. White duct tape, look for it ladies.
I didn't have any large grocery bags, just small lunch sizes. Well.  Now what.  Oh I say...lets just turn this box inside out.  Yup. That she did.  And then stuck in some blown up air things that came from another order.  Am I all about recycling, or what?
Me.  In the eyes of a 4 year old.  Thank You Megan, I love the way you see me.
oh look....something else came with that leaf print.....in the middle is the way it arrives, wrapped in pattern tissue paper! 
You whoooooooo......I decided to use my hand for the label on this quilt for the next baby.  The red marks are the crayola washable pen I used to go around my hand.
Some of the binding is this orange. Some of it's the prints. 
More recycled...er....re=purposed items.  1. puzzle piece. 2. magnet from some business, cut to sorta fit. 3. Ta Da, and rocket ship magnet!
the clothes pins were to hold the whole thing while the glue dried, but you knew that...right?

  1. Nice fabric - I really like the polka dotty ones. Your hand for the label is too clever - and that magnet is a good idea for those ugly lawyer magnets that come on the front of the phone book.

    Did you get washed away in the rain last night?

  2. What a beautiful idea for that baby label! If I'm not old and feebleminded (or more so) when I ever have grandbabies, I am SO stealing it. :o)
