@zenren14 very well said! I work mostly with donated denim and cotton clothes and make bags out of them. I get them at Goodwill, their last stop before going into landfill. I like giving them a second life. It’s very different from their original designation, but unique and beautiful.

As a leukemia survivor, I also see myself as someone who has gone through the rough process of transformation. I’m not the same person as I was before my illness and deal with limitations, but I’m very content with my second life!

@alive

admirable patchwork

@alive
"a second life," what a great way to put it. At one time I showed a film on creativity as part of a class & the memorable line to me was
"creative people look at one thing & see another " ...meaning possibilities
of course.
I like to buy skirts and make scarves out of them as really they are just
a few yards of fabric that is easily disassembled. = FUN!
Hurray for the Salvation Army, Goodwill, etc! K
