| Homemade Duster
Dateline: 02/24/98 A Homemade Duster line
Here's a quick and easy project to make something useful out of your Fleece scraps. You may want to remember this one at bazaar time! line
Materials Needed
* Any color Fleece scraps * Strong thread or string. * A 1 foot or longer piece of 3/4" dowel. * A small screw
Directions
Cut your scrapes as close to 12" by 1/2" strips as you can.
Lay them all in a pile, lining up the ends as evenly as possible.
Wrap a strong thread or string around the middle, as you would to create a pom-pom.
Pull tightly and knot your thread. Repeat this a few times so that it is bound tightly.
Hold the middle over the end of dowel.
Run the screw down through the middle of your "pom-pom", into the end of the dowel.
The more strips you use, the thicker your duster will be. _________________ Vicki

| What a great idea! I never thought about using fleece to dust, but it does seem like it would work well. _________________ MARY |
