Off The Grid

Sometimes the urge to do something quite different comes over me and I can't resist. A while back a hooker came to our group and shared with us a piece she had worked on a rice bag. One finds it very difficult to throw out those wonderful plastic rice bags (usually the 10-25lb size) because they are soooo useful and usually quite decorative if you like rice bags.

Anyway, this hooker was from Virginia by way of Paris and I was immediately taken by the opportunity to use some of my rice bag stash. She did not mention that hooking thru a rice bag is an invitation to carpel tunnel, but determination won out. and the result of my efforts:


Rice Bag Recycled
Make The Earth Happy, Recycle
I even managed to use some 1940s buttons from the huge button stash (hard to throw out a button) and some fringe on the bottom.

Have any of you visiting this page tried a project more or less off the "grid"? If so please email me your efforts and I would be happy to post it if you want to share.
