Go green, sew green

One way to go green is to sew green. Using unconventional fabrics like sleeves from wool sweaters and “fabric” made from fused plastic bags, learn the basics of sewing through simple and easy to make projects that incorporate recycling. Four unique sewing projects are demonstrated, including: A fused plastic messenger-style bag. A cell phone or mp3 player holder. A protective sleeve for a laptop. A water bottle holder.
