As the old saying goes… Something OLD, Something New…

One thing that artisans and crafters of all types have in common? Their love of supplies. Scrapbookers, paper crafters, quilters, and sewers all have the habit of “collecting” way more supplies than they could ever use! So this week’s challenge is an easy one.

Create a project of your choice using OLDER supplies. Of course for some of us, older supplies mean stuff in our stash that is literally 10 years old. For some, it may only be a couple years. What ever it is for you… have fun. Dig deep and challenge yourself. Perhaps an old paper or sticker, old tools that were once the hottest thing that is now collecting dust, an old pattern you never got around to creating, some fabric that was always too cool to use…

Post ideas and links to your finished samples here or on the message boards and I will post my faves through out the week!
