SARAH0356 · 09-20-2001, 08:28 PM

Anybody know any crafts to do with ribbon. I have tons, regular ribbon and wire edged ribbon. Any ideas or web sites would be greatly appreciated.

It looks like noone replyed to your question. Maybe I'm not reading it right. I do believe that I have a book of ribbon crafts. In the AM I'll look for it and get back to you.

I found this at findarticles.com
It was too big to send thru the forum but this should get you there

As you might see I'm going thru my stuff and finding things to trade off. I still haven't found my ribbon book yet.

Have you thought about crocheting the ribbon??
Using crossgrain, if you have it?
Making dresser scarfs?? {do they still call them that??..lol**

Just an idea...PJ

SARAH0356 · 10-30-2001, 11:53 AM

I would love to try that. I have never heard of crocheting ribbon. The only problem is I cant crochet. I am trying to find someone in my area that can teach me. I would love to learn.

Good luck Sarah for a teacher...

I taught my Mom how to 'make' things in crochet..
She was great at making room size oval rugs in single stiches..but did not know how to read directions, or other stiches.
BTW: I was late 30's, when I helped her, and wish I had one of her rugs in everyroom of the house now...

There are sites to help..I'll look around and see what I can come up with for ya..
Finger Weaving,{as its called** is easy,its crochet too.

Take care... PJ
