Do you all know that towels also have a use period, and the period is only three months? When towels are used for a long time, in addition to becoming hard and uncomfortable, the most important thing is that they will be contaminated with a large number of bacteria, which is harmful to the human body. Health effects.
So what can you use the replaced towels for? You don’t need so many to make rags and mops. Especially for some large families, the towels that are replaced over a period of time are amazing. So this beautiful girl from abroad came up with the idea of ??using patchwork technology to transform towels into shawls/bath towels, which is not only very environmentally friendly, but also very beautiful!
Preparation materials:
About 20 yuan of towels, 1 old blanket, 2 hidden buttons, and some small accessories.
Preparation Tools:
Scissors, pins, sewing machine, needle and thread.
Production steps:
Place the 14 towels flatly. The red circle indicates that more towels need to be added.
Sew 14 pieces of towels together according to the sewing method of the sewing machine shown in the picture.
Add a second layer by cutting an old blanket into the same shape as a shawl. If you want a patchwork effect, add some other colors of fabric.
Use your sewing machine to press the cut edges of the blanket together.
Place the blanket under the shawl and cut an opening for the blanket according to the size of the opening of the shawl. When cutting, leave a 2cm wide edge and cut gaps in the four corners.
Turn the blanket over, fold back the edge reserved for the opening, secure it with a pin, and then press the edge with a sewing machine.
Sew two snap buttons on the corners of the shawl. The female button is on the outer layer and the collar is on the inner layer. The snap buttons will fasten the inner and outer layers of the shawl. Therefore, when sewing snap buttons, the positions of the mother button and sub-button must be aligned.
