What do your quilting supplies look like?
How used and abused are your cutting boards, rulers and rotary cutters?
Do they look like this?
You can cover your stained ironing board with a white piece of flannel.
- Makes it look clean and fresh again.
- It grabs the loose threads when you are pressing.
- It absorbs your spray starch.
- It grabs the color dyes from your fabric.
- And most importantly it's machine washable! You can keep it fresh and clean.

HAHAHA - when did you sneak into my house? I have the WORST cutting mats - 3 of them that look like that - one worse - you can no longer see the lines. I tend to cut the corners off my rulers. I do have good scissors though - now that the kids are gone. I have 2 table top ironing boards and I have towel covers I made for them so I can wash them out - but they need replacing. Made me blush!
ReplyDeleteMy main ruler has the whole end broke off where Seth stepped on it. I keep rotating the mat hoping it will help...
ReplyDeleteAnd I put a new ironing cover on and it was messed up in a matter of days. I give up!
Oh my! I hope a new mat is in your near future. My cutting mat is new since my old one was warped and very brittle. I suspect a kid might have had something to do with the warping. They thought you could iron on it! Darn it, oh I mean, Yay, I get to buy a new one :) I also just recovered my ironing board too. Looks soo much better now. Let's hope it stays that way at least until I get tired of the fabric pattern :) Oh and I like your rotary cutter. Looks very comfy to work with.
ReplyDeleteOOHHH Marcia..I almost well you know..had to run to my powder room...lol ok the mat, the ironing board..very sad...and yes I bet many look like this...gosh I am glad we have great sponsors ...
ReplyDeleteyou should win the prize for one of the best post I have seen to date for OUR campaign
Aren't our cutting boards supposed to be bent, frayed, coming apart? My rulers are in pretty good shape. I bought a old wooden ironing board, and now I have to make a cover. I've never seen flannel on an ironing board. I was thinking of using 30's fabrics to brighten it up. I've never made an ironing board cover before.
ReplyDeleteI just saw your vintage post with the picture of the pincushion made with the canning jar lids... how did you make that.. i get the fabric jar ring and batting but hat did you use as the base. We just went through my grandmas house and pulled out about 12 huge boxes of jars mostly canning. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteHad to laugh when I saw your mat and the before picture of ironing board. Great Idea flannel, never thought of that, Im gonna try this. My biggest problem is keeping blades for my cutter. Just purchased new ones last week, why oh why do I wait so long before replacing them. Many of my rulers have nicks and chips, but still work so keeping them. I guess you know you are an avid quilter if your equipment looks like this.
ReplyDeleteBeing new, I can't wait til my stuff looks like that! Am starting a project with some of Dad's shirts and hunting coats! Wish me luck!
