I have a bucket full of scraps of knit fabric left over from refashion projects. I can’t bear to throw them away, but I haven’t yet found a good use for the smallish pieces of fabric. That is, until I saw this tutorial by Ashley from Make It and Love It. She shows how to turn them into gorgeous fabric flowers using elastic thread shirring. Genius!! Get the tute.
