a busy domestic blog of knitting, sewing and all kinds of needlecrafts, cooking my garden produce and preserving it

Reduce, re-use, recycle.

I'm reducing the pile of stuff labelled 'things that may be useful one day' by re-using the material from old skirts. I'm hoping the larger ones (mine) can be recycled into summer tops and the smaller ones (daughter's) into colourful linings for my funky bag projects.
