The Rest Of The Story - Hang On

 This is the project I teased about in my last post - covered hangers.  I have such an accumulation of vintage linens that resisted my chemical assault or were just broken beyond repair that I finally decided I needed to destash by doing something with some of them.  These are the front sides.  At least they are if you happen to be right-handed like me.

 I decorated the back sides, too, just in case my right hand is tired and I decide to use my left hand.  I don't do that very often.  My left hand isn't very smart.

 Even though they are called "cutters" when they are this condition, I still have a hard time actually cutting them up.  Recent posts and comments from Laurie and Renee convinced me I needed to get past that in order to give them a new life.  I am glad I did.  Each one became a fabric collage of bits and pieces harvested from different pieces.

 The picture swatches are vintage postcards I used my printer to copy onto fabric.  This is something I love to do.  They are printed on the printer fabric that is made especially for that purpose.  I happened to score of huge stack of packages at the thrift a while back.  The words printed on pink are made by ironing the fabric onto the shiny side of freezer paper and running it through the printer.  I actually prefer that method because the fabric is easier to peel off the backing.

I haven't submitted anything in a while so I think I will send these off to SEW Somerset.  Check back in a year or so - LOL!
I am linking up with Show and Tell Friday at My Romantic Home today.  Thanks to Cindy for hosting.  There are always a huge number of participants so be sure to check it out for some inspiration.
