recycling

                            
                            
This is Al again, my guerilla knitting friend from a couple of posts ago.
And this is an old tapestry found in an op shop finding new life in the bush.

    dear jasmin, i like your friend!
    and here comes my swap idea, i can offer you a professional big print, what do you think? do you want the "little me" painting with or without helicopters? i am so sorry and scared about all the water in your country, in brazil and here too, not that bad of course, but anyway, much to much.

    A perfect recycling action. I like guerilla knitting friends, and their friends. Would love to find a tree dressed up in parrots.

    I think that bird was just itching to get out into nature again. Love it. I always look at crafts like that in thrift stores and feel kind of sad for them. Someone went through all that trouble to make them and they lay there dejected. That is fantastic you gave it a new home.

    What a great idea for recycling and repurposing! A bird in the tree is worth two in the recycle bin!
