Michele blogs at The Scrap Shoppe, and she has a great no-sew way to use up some of the fabric scraps in your stash! Michele loves summer decorating, and keeps her stuff up “from Memorial Day to Labor Day.” Her red white & blue rag ribbon garland definitely has me feeling patriotic, but I’m also thinking about other color combinations that would look great throughout the year!
After she gathered up her fabrics (you can use ribbon too!) Michele cut them all into 15″ lengths. Then she started making strips. She looped each strip carefully around a length of twine, using a tricky technique to make sure the back sides of the fabric strips remained hidden. Michele says, “I added the strips in no particular order, only following a red then white then blue pattern.” I loved the way this turned out!
