RE:LOVE - Repurposed — Iron Heart, Reimagined

@Lynne , my only concern with the shorter flap is that items could get banged up when they’re rolled and stacked on top of each other.
-
The small flap version would work fine for tools where rubbing wear is irrelevant.
-
Here is the tool roll which came with my bike.
The rulers are both cms.
The journey is the objective.

@Lynne I have a watch roll that (imo) has just about the perfect dimensions. Its made from leather and suede lined so quite think material. Only mentioning it in case it matters for the pattern.
its roughly 28cm wide at the bottom by 28cm tall
At ~10cm up from the bottom, it begins to taper slightly to ~23cm at the top
It has space for four watches and one spring bar tool. the watch pockets are 6cm, with the covering crating the pocket being more like 9cm. Only remembered to measure after taking pics, but the pocket is 8.5cm deep.
The oversized top material is accomodated by this flap construction
The spring bar tool pocket is 3cm wide, covered by 3.5cm material.
i would definitely be interested in an RE:LOVE'd version of something like this. If you need any more measurements let me know

@motojobobo a slightly smaller size, interesting. I thought you’d all have big tools and would need something bigger
I can do something with this -
Lynne a tool roll for cars would certainly require larger tools (and rolls). They are as small and light as possible on bikes.
I think that a denim as thin as 14 oz would perfectly suffice for a bike tool roll.
Ermmmm…although my dream tool roll would be made of brown duck!!! -

Denim placemats?
Wifey bought these at Walmart for $5 but it’ll be cool to swap these out with some 21oz goodness haha

@worn2fade we just got a new coffee table and (thankfully) read reviews ahead of time that it gets ring stains easily. We've been in the market too.
-
@worn2fade your wish is my command! A batch of 11 coasters is going live this/next week, I believe.
Here’s a preview of what’s coming.
What’s nice about these is that the lining is made from a woman’s shirt so you get more details on the back. One even has a pocket - quirky I know, but it’s a large coaster and a mug/beer bottle sits comfortably away on the front side from the snap on the back so there’s no wobble.
-
@pechelman I’ll add to the list!
-
@Lynne Do you dig the placemat idea specifically? I know it may require much more material so I wasn’t sure how realistic it may be.
-
@worn2fade aaah, I can see they’re placemat size now. I feel they may be too fabric hungry for what I have and ergo too expensive for people to buy, especially as they’d probably want sets of them. But I can see that if we had rolls of fabric and flannel for lining that these would be easy to make. If I get an influx of Relove pieces (shout out to people to send in their worn shirts and jeans
) then I’ll keep this in mind for sure.
Added to my list -
Excuse my indulgence in this thread, but I wanted to show you a pair of beautiful old sewing chairs I rescued from a friend’s factory this week.
They may look like this now, but I have high hopes of transforming the upholstery into something like that created on this chair of dreams. I will be stitching together the tiniest scraps from my own personal fabric stash and then, if successful, potentially creating small cushions for Relove.
Could this be the most beautiful chair in the world?!
