upcycled peg bags ...

My brother asked me to make him a peg bag, so I rummaged through my pile of 'recycling stuff' which included some kids clothes that a friend of mine had given me to chop up. Hmmm, I thought, I wonder if this will work. So I went about chopping up said clothes and embellishing with appliques and vintage buttons. I am mighty pleased with the results and am happily making more to list on my website and to take along to the craft fairs in the run up to Christmas.
