Ruffles Surprise




I was happily going through my lovely stash of scraps and left over ruffle pieces when I pulled out a completed ruffle 186 1/2 inches long and it suddenly hit me!  I had made the ruffle for the bottom ruffle of my dress design when I realized too late my width measurement was too narrow!    Oops a huge dissapointment then became a happy mistake.  I signed up for a 30 challenge to list something new every day in my shop over the next 30 days with one of my Etsy teams The Brigade.  This was the whole reason I was going through my scraps to come up with a new project for the challenge!  Sometimes a little push is all you need to get your creative juices flowing.  Thank you Cindy for the little push, err kick in the booty. :)  I'm thinking of making a tutorial on how to make my ruffle garland, anybody interested?
