One of my friends never threw out the clothes for a long time does not wear. Such a "textile Plyushkin" stored in the bowels of a large wardrobe in its history. But in this situation, you could see one plus: some of the things she did something to create. Most of all I remember the toys made from old wool sweaters with Scandinavian motifs. Woolen bunnies and bears with elaborately embroidered muzzles looked awesome! At first glance, it was difficult to determine that they are not connected, and sewn.
Separate my love in her house were cushions, covers that my friend made several jumpers knitted from thin filaments with a silky texture and milky-white. Pillows also sewed by hand and filled with quality hollofayber. Incidentally, the covers have a hidden zipper that allows them to safely remove and wash.
Once she showed me another fruit of their hand-made - a chic wool rug made of (you guessed it) sweaters, but in the art of patchwork (patchwork). She took a few big knitwear similar shades, cutting out of them the same squares, and then gently pristrachivala them together using a sewing machine from the wrong side. The edge of the rug has been processed decorative embroidery woolen threads. The size of work impressed me and inspired creativity: Never in my life will not say that it was once an ordinary knitted sweater!
In search of information and ideas, I found that to be happy in life embodied. I think many of you are also useful.
Sew these hearts is easy and simple: you have to draw a pattern in the shape of the heart, cut it to two identical parts, put them inside out, sew neatly, leaving a small hole for the filler. Then unscrew heart, fill it hollofayber or synthetic padding and quietly sew.
