I love my old sheets the quality of the linen is amazing...I am also a big fan of bleach...something has to get the coffee and wine stains out of them!...Old sheets die young and I am left with a very thin bit in the middle but some perfectly serviceable fabric on the sides...too skinny to make a sheet...The worn bits in the middle make the most amazing soft, lint free cleaning cloths...But the sides I figure have another life left in them...So I have been making things...
I thought I was making tea towels but I am not sure I can bear to get pasta sauce on these so maybe they are hand towels...but they work really well in my kitchen so maybe I need to get over myself and accept they will get covered with pasta sauce knowing there will always be another old sheet to make new ones with...
I have also 'done' a bit of laundry bag making...I guess it is a better option than drug taking...and also another use for an old bit of sheet...How many uses might I find for bits of old sheet?
Where next...
