For this badge you will create fiber projects that use ONLY recycled fabric goods—with the exception of sewing machine or embroidery thread. Anything knitted or crocheted must be made from sweaters that have been unraveled, etc. Think “next life” in all that is fiber. Projects must be completed and photographed.
Beginner (25 hours): 2 hours
"Fallon-Ties-Day" roses (12) @ 10 mins/rose = 2 hours.
These were Grand-Dad's old ties he shared with us since he reTired. Fallon used a seam ripper to take out the back tab that secures the tail, measured 10" from the skinny end, and marked it with a pin. I timed myself on the dangerous part at 10 mins each rolling them up and fixing the rolls in place with hot glue. Hopefully hot glue falls in the exception category of embroidery thread? We did not purchase new/extra, but tried to use up some of what we already had on hand. Note to self: keep burn cream with the extra glue cartridges. Then we passed these out to the 11 girls in Fallon's scout troop and one for her to keep.
