We tried to pick the best 2 recycling entries, but it was so hard because so many of them were really innovative and creative. You gals have wonderful suggestions for reusing and recycling fabric, clothing, even “warm and natural” batting. It was so hard that we just ended up putting them all in a dish and drawing them out. I had my husband do it so it would be totally fair. Take a look at the pictures below and see the process unfold.
OK now, big drum roll please!!

All the entries are inside the bowl…

Winner #1 is about to be chosen. Who will it be?

CONGRATULATIONS!!! Julia Wood
