What to do with Old Sheet?

[mrsbernstein]

Good Morning!

Here and there, I have heard women talk of using old sheets for sewing. I have never done sew but now have an old sheet to use!

I have an old 500-count yellow top sheet that finally needs to be retired. It is a queen size, with just a few holes. Now HUGE holes, but a few 4-5" holes (stupid Jack Russel terror!).

I don't have a CLUE what to do! What are you favorite things to do wtih a yellow sheet?

THank you!

Saamy,

Your cloth napkin idea might just have come at the RIGHT TIME!

Sunday, we are having church at our house. Normally, we meet at the other family's homes b/c they are prepared for having 20-30 people at a time...where WE are...NOT!

But, it is finally OUR turn...and I do not have enough napkins!

I don't really sew so I use 'em to line my knitting and crocheted stuff----purses, totes, stuffed animals, etc.
