Upholstery fabric swatches, I thought using upholstery fabric would be a good idea to contribute towards this collective reupholstering of this gas station.

Crocheted acrylic yarn.
I am a hobby crocheter; using yarn from hand-me-downs, thrift store buys and occasional new yarn. I enjoy making things with my hands in all forms of media (especially clay). I am involved with voluntary simplicity, environmental issues and personal lifestyles choices that effect the environment. I live in a home heated with geothermal heating and positive solar design. I grow some of my own food and shop locally whenever possible.
