So like I said, I don't have much crafting money, so I have been using up scraps like it's my job. While they are proving to go a long way, I would love some yardage for big projects.

So I have been saving up.

Yes, I found a use for one of my old juice jars. I put a few bucks in there when I can. Then I will go on a fabric binge. Some lucky Etsian will surely benefit from my savings.

I made my first plushie entirely out of scraps.

I made some scrappy broaches.

Here's a needle book.

Maybe now I will stop jamming my needles in the arm of my chair when I'm embroidering.

Last, I thrifted this super cool knit blazer. It looks boxy, but fits pretty good. I guess I could stand to take it in an inch.

I put it in my shopping cart totally happy with the way that it was, but the minute I got it home, I couldn't leave well enough alone.

I made a little letter, and appliqued it onto the back. Then I did some embroidery.

I like how it looks a bit imperfect. A co-worker of mine was walking behind me, and asked if I had a piece of paper on my back. So maybe it's not imperfect, maybe it's just right.
