Default Before: A Humble Pillowcase - After: A Shabby Chic Laundry Bag!

I don't have an actual Before of this pillow case but I think you can imagine what it looked like!
...and after the crafter's touch...a bit of hand embroidery and machine embroidery.....a new laundry bag. All of it made from items sourced from generous Jumbletowners. Thanks all

I love the shabby chic look and your ideas are inspirational Unapam. You have inspired me to take up sewing classes for the winter, so I can try out some ideas myself.

Well done to you!
