I've decided to make a rug for the girl's room.
Latch hook. Out of old t-shirts that I have to find, buy, and then cut up into tiny pieces. It's going to take forever. Good thing I like a challenge! I was telling friends about it today, and they wanted a picture when I was done. Since that might be awhile, I was told to take a picture now. I came home and counted my rows. I've done 5 in two days. It takes about 2 hours for me to do two rows.
I'm really excited to see the finished project. It's looking really good so far! I don't have a set pattern for colors, I just put all of my pieces in a bag, then without looking I pull one out. I find I'm less anal that way about it being perfect. The colors I picked were white, pink, and teal. (The colors of the girl's room) So...if any of my wonderful readers ~ especially the ones that know me ~ have t-shirts that they wouldn't mind getting cut up, let me know, I'll take them off your hands! Oh, one more thing...guess where I found this idea? ;)

Good luck! I started a latch hook once. It was with yarn and a pattern. A horse head. I never finished. I finally got rid of it. Some NUTs are worth keeping around, some just aren't!
ReplyDeleteAre you saying I'm a nut? ;)
DeleteI love the colour combination! I just might have one or two older pink ones that are too big for me now that I can part with!! :) I know you'll finish this one too. You go girl!
ReplyDeleteI will check my toss pile to. What a great idea. You are so crafty.
ReplyDeleteI really wanted to do one of these. Some day... some day.
