A couple weeks back I called an automobile upholstery shop and requested any scrap. Well today I picked up a pile! You can't see the red and blue, as they toppled the pile, however I did get a couple pieces of red and 1 of blue. I can make key fobs! So as I got out of the car, I bent down to pick a weed and I got stung by something! That will teach me! My last news makes me happy! Christie is coming to visit in February. It will be too cold to do much, so I expect a lot of stitching!

Great idea!! Nice to reuse something that would be thrown away! Suzanne

Yes! Thanks for posting

great idea to recycle something they would probably throw away, ''one man's Junk is another man's treasure.

Thank you! I got it cut down and it is still too much.

Great haul!!! Christine, I used the headliner fabric for my 'insulation/padding in my water bottle holders,I just posted in Projects. I quilted just straight lines to hold it in place. Worked fabulous! Looks like pieces big enough for purses, to go with those fobs!!!!

If only I have your skill and ... I will go back and look at more of your fabulous pieces. I have some hardware, just gotta find it. Lol!

It is always nice to get materials to work with - It gets those juices flowing in any craft. :)

I totally agree! I have to put things together, I can't just see them like some really gifted people can.

Good deal, you can make a lot more than just fobs, This will keep you busy a loooong time.

It is really more than I need. I hope to use a chunk though.
