Game – 100 uses for an old white queen-sized fitted sheet

[Carolla]

Make nice light nightgown for summer!

Diapers for dolls.

 

[KayTheCurler]

Tear them up for emergency bandages. Added usefulness if you use them to teach the kids how to use a roll bandage -ankle, knee, wrist etc.. they are all different.

 

[ChemGal]

Berry drop sheet - give the bushes a good shake to harvest.

 

[BetteTheRed]

There's always the rag bag.

 

[Lastpointe]

Hang it up with a light behind and out in shadow puppet shows

 

[ninj]

Make little parachutes for plastic dinosaurs.

Some really creative ideas here. My contribution for the day, practical.

Tear into strips and used to tie up tomato plants.

Tear it up into strips. Dye them a bunch of different colours (maybe leave some un-dyed) and make a rag rug - indoor doormat sized. I'm sure there's a video or a book on how to weave them.

Make bath tea sachets - put dried flowers, and Epsom salts in them. Drop in the tub.

Make wedding favour bags. Use nice ribbon - lace ribbon or ribbon with a sheen as the drawstring. Stencil and paint each person's name on them. Decorate with embellishments as desired.

 

[Kimmio Laughterlove]

Similar idea - make a bunch of different sized drawstring bags for different uses: lunch bags, goodie bags, shopping bags. It might work as a washing bag for bras or delicates.

 

[Redbaron]

Maybe a cover for a twin bed size duvet?

Make artificial flowers with them. Cut up round and oblong petal shapes and layer them then wrap the base with wire leaving a "stem" hanging down - then wrap a strip of the fabric, dyed green, or green ribbon, dipped in wallpaper paste around the stem up to the base. You could leave some pieces sticking out on the way up and use scissors to round them into "leaves". Glue a few seed beads in the centre of each one. You could sprinkle a tiny bit of glitter on them so they catch the light.

Another tear into strips project- tear into strips and crochet a rug. You may even be able to knit the strips if you prefer.

@Northwind beat you to it up thread (great minds think alike?)

I went through all the posts before I posted it because I figured someone must've mentioned it before me.

Slightly different crafting style than I was thinking, though.

 

[Kimmio Laughterlove]

Spin off from that - a throw pillow cover made from woven rags.

I was adding to yours. I read yours as a braided rag rug. Either way, now there's at least three options.

Just occurred to me that the thinner pieces -- about 4 layers folded into rectangles would make an excellent, soft and absorbent diaper. I know they are still in use by some.
