What a wonderful chalk fabric!!! I can do applications from it for my kitchen’s panno for menu and recipes, or even use it for patchwork- for notes, or do covers for books, or labels for different boxes and so on and so on (as I have Chalk markers!)

Dec 5, 2011, 02.16 PMby Seeks Corey
I think I’m more apt to go for a big wide brimmed hat, but I feel like spats would be super fun.

I would sew an outdoor pet bed for my doggies.
Dec 5, 2011, 01.52 PMby oonaballoona
how about a heouge sunhat…..
Dec 5, 2011, 01.49 PMby sarahsews
It might make good chair pads for kitchen chairs- especially for those of us who have kids.
Dec 5, 2011, 01.46 PMby caelum224
It would make a cute, stylish cover for my sewing machine on the go. I would also like to make a paint brush roll.

My little ‘hound’ and I love walking on the Oregon coast, even in the rain and wind. My little ‘hound’ weighs in at about 6 pounds so finding one for her was all put hopeless. After searching and then purchasing a few coats I realized it would be necessary to design and sew what we needed. The standard oil cloth does not fit our personality, thus when checking out this site I was delighted to find oil cloth in fun prints etc. Now I need to start creating the perfect raincoat for both of us.

Dec 5, 2011, 12.18 PMby sunnyb64
I love the shower curtain idea! Though if I’m allowed to make a bag, I’d probably go for a colorful reusable lunchbag.
