Tolentreasures

  These have been in the back of my mind for awhile. Pennants with a twist. So, after cleaning the sewing room, I messed it up again. I am always buying boxes of linens and hoarder than I am, I cannot stand to throw any of them away. Even the stained, ripped ones.   This is what I decided to do with them. Bits of fancy needlework...salvaged! Lots more to go!    The original pennant tutorial is here   http://tolentreasures.blogspot.com/2012/11/free-pennant-tutorialvery-easy.html   The only twist?   The serger on the edges.   I bought this serger from a friend this summer.   It has sat and sat and sat.   So after dusting and cleaning and Olympic gymnastic acts to get it threaded, it is working!     How fun are those machines?  

  Some just take a little cleaning and washing and  pressing. Some require a little repair work and some remaking because they are not quite  perfect! But it's fun to go through and see what you can do  with them. A box of old linens is like a treasure chest for me!
