This is the first of our new mini-series showing how to create a unique and useful stash of craft materials for free from items that usually go to waste.
The theme for this session is Fabric where we show how to magically transform worn or unwanted bed linens, clothes and other household fabrics into yarn for crafting projects. In the video below we show how make this yarn into gorgeous pompoms and make fabric beads with the smaller pieces of left over material and threads. Every bit of fabric is put to good use in ways you may never have thought of!
