Have you ever heard of such a thing, using Pet Screen to
make bags and other projects? Maybe I should get out more!
I hadn’t heard of pet screen bags until I saw some lovely ones
that Michelle Dorsey of Sew Michelle creates! She has developed a line of patterns
using traditional pet screen. Some quilt shops, like Thomas Sewing Center in Mesquite , Texas ,
sells smaller amounts than what you have to get at the major home improvement
stores.
Momma and I went to a “show and tell” – the first Saturday
of every month – at Thomas’s. It was then and there I saw Michelle demonstrate her
purse pattern she’s created using the pet screen. She gave all in attendance a
print out instruction chart and the pieces & parts to make one. This is
next on my to-do list!
Using “pet screen” is timely. I noticed on the news recently
that some football stadiums are now requiring see-through bags, along with some
airports, and many retail stores for their employees.
So versatile!!!
At the Embroidery Library, they have a nice article about embroidering on pet screen!
I just found an amazing resource for pet screen by the yard
in fun colors! Wonder what color I’ll start off with? Maybe the Christmas red!
But, I love the “garden green”!
Which color at the Fabric Depot do you like?
