An easy one this month. "Reuse, recycle, revamp". Use any design from this site in a project that either recycles materials or pretties up an ancient garment from the back of your wardrobe.

Most of mine too - I think the oldest item in my wardrobe dates back to 1975. It is a long woollen cloak and I still wear it!
Got you beat there! Mine is a black dress with a jacket I wore to my best friends mother's funeral, June 1962. I'm recycling the dress by keeping it for my own. hahaha

Great idea, Sue. There is way too much stuff thrown away in the world today with plenty of use left.
I like your new avatar, as well!

I think we should stick to using Veronika's designs - wonder what everyone else thinks?
Sounds good to me! :)

I know I haven't entered anything in any of the monthly challenges but I thought the idea was a celebration of Veronika's generosity and a small way to thank her for all the gifts the gives, and for allowing us to enjoy cuties on her website.
PLEASE do not move away from using Veronica's designs.
I do enjoy looking at all the entries, such a wide variaton on a theme, thank you to all who have shown your work.

We have always something like that to do, it will be a good occasion to use a design of miss Veronika, as you have said in your post

Ancient garment? That's all I have. I think some of them came over on the Mayflower. I'm thinking on it.

Think mine are the same age, but the Mayflower was going the wrong way for my clothes. Ly

I have been thinking of taking what is left of my great grandmother's old feed sack comforter and making something of it by adding a design to it. This just might be the perfect project for that! Any ideas from you Cuties? It is just old muslim, faded to white with a thick wine colored thread stitched through it diagonally....... It is incredibly soft and I remember cuddling with it as a little girl. In one corner you can see it was stamped MISSPRINT. It is so special, please help me think of something appropriate.....

I had to come back and re-read this. I was worried that I had to make it into another garment or make it wearable again. Thank goodness I don't, lol! Now what haven't I gotten rid of yet that will work, hmmmm.

Great idea....I'm slowly making a comforter out of my hubbies old jeans (6 1/2" squares) and have decided to put some embroidery designs on it....I don't get time to work on it often so maybe I'll be finished by next April....looking forward to seeing some pictures.
