This blog is all about saving bits and pieces and making the most out of a ragged edge dresser scarf.
There are 28 pictures below, most all have information in the picture captions. My intention is to demonstrate to you that almost any vintage linen has potential, it just depends on how you look at it and how willing you are to think outside the box.
This is a picture illustration/tutorial on why I do not throw anything away that is 1” or larger.




























I was thrilled!
Don’t throw away anything! 😄😄
Blessings to everyone for a great New Year!


Oh, WOW this is just gorgeous 🙂 With my late mothers blessing, I have made a precious quilt using this method & five generations (on mother’s side) of stunning hand embroidered table clothes, pillow cases, aprons, doilies, etc, some of which were very tread bare & totally tatty. It is just the most precious quilt ever. A beautiful heirloom to treasure for many more generations.

Aha! I do have 1 dresser scarf with a few stains… maybe I can get some use out of it. I have another out of a heavier linen…. that one I’ll have to think about as it’s currently on my dresser.
