There is no
Sunday Stew Special today, since we had sandwiches after the morning service with our church family. Instead I offer you another
"Crafting for the Clueless". I have a super soft, extra warm, gorgeous, bamboo knit, striped scarf that I really, really love. The problem is it's too warm. (I know - aren't scarves supposed to be warm?) It was time to decide whether to get rid of it or repurpose. I decided the material was so soft and cozy that I could make a pillow for my bed.
BEFORE:
I repurposed an old, flattened pillow by ripping it open, re-fluffling the fibres, and then sewing it into another case. Next, I folded the scarf in half with the frayed ends touching, hand stitched the two open sides, stuffed the pillow inside, and simply tied the ends shut. If I ever need to wash the scarf, I can easily untie it and remove the pillow.
AFTER:
It's really meant for my bed, but my family keeps stealing it to snuggle with on the couch!
I did this in one evening last week while watching "Pride and Prejudice". (One of my favourite movies btw!)
Linking to these parties - so much inspiration from everyone!
