Out with the old and in with the new

My OLD clothespin or peg bag bought from the $2 store back in the day when I didn’t know how to sew.

Hubby’s OLD jeans saved from being thrown out.

And tada, my NEW girly, ruffly peg bag made with his jeans and Art Gallery fabric that I won. What do you think? The fabrics were randomly thrown together as I had to use pieces of fabrics that were long enough for the ruffles.

I used 6 frills on the clothespin bag – 3 ruffled and 3 flat.
Added the yellow binding at the last minute to neaten up the whole bag. Also saved me from having to hem it as I doubt my sewing machine would have sewn through all those layers of denim.
Even used my overlocker for the second time to neaten up the raw edges. As you can see, a pretty roomy bag for my pegs. Hopefully, hanging out the washing will be a tad enjoyable from now on.


now that is a fancy peg holder!! i think it looks nicer than any of the clothes i’d be hanging up!
