Makeover Monday: 10/26

I found this beautiful vintage medallion sheet the other day. I fell in love with the lime, lavender and aqua colors with the cantaloupe background.

~*~ I made a bowl about this size for my raffle prize at the craft fair, and it turned out really sweet!

This one measures 7" wide by 3.5" tall, and it is super sturdy and colorful. I can see it as a biscuit bowl on a cheery breakfast table. What would you do with a basket like this? Inquiring minds want to know :)

Moving On Up

Oh, sorry...didn't mean to put the Jefferson's theme song into your head for the entire day...hehe. The rag basket is now 14" in diameter and over 2 inches high. All that you see here has been crocheted from only one and a half of the smaller sized rag balls! They are so tightly packed it is unbelievable.

The second ball I used had thinner strips, and mostly colorful cotton. This one gave me a bit of a setback, as one of the fabrics was extremely brittle and kept breaking whenever I would come to a section of it. That's when I decided to set that ball aside and start on a third ball in hopes of finding stronger material. That plan is working well so far. Be back in a few days with more of the rag basket tale!
