I found this artist on a green craft blog: This Recycled Life, Cara Johnson. She uses scrap fabric from old swatch books, old clothes, used paper like wrapping paper, etc. I like her stuff because she uses all kinds of sewing/ quilting techniques for jewelry, collage art, cards, etc. She makes homemade gifts and sells some things on etsy site, Beautiful garbage.
I especially love what she does with baby clothes. We all know babies grow super fast and they are quickly growing out of their clothes. You are left with a huge amount of clothes that you or other people have bought for your little one. Some they probably haven't even worn once. I know my Godchild had more clothes than she could wear from the 1st couple months. So she takes onesies and sews cute designs on them. I think this would make a really nice gift for an expecting mother.
