I had the distinct honor of creating a commemorative item for a friend whom lost her mother a few years back. I was given carte blanche to transform her Mamma's favorite tie-dyed shirt into something more her style. While at first intimidating - cutting up memories!!! - it rapidly became my favorite commission ever. Blessed. Honored. Flattered.

Et VOILA! A long scarf. And just in time for Mothers Day. One of my goals was to use every inch of the shirt, especially the neckline and cuffs, which usually get discarded. I am happy to announce I converted the neckline into a necklace and the cuffs morphed into the posies thereon. Only a wee bag of scraps were left. As close to Zero Waste if ever there was!
