I found this at Goodwill for $1.99! Had to ask my ex-Army brother what it is, lol! It's a tent, but without pegs and poles it could be anything. A hammock comes to mind. Do you imaginative ladies have any more ideas for how I could use it?

My sister suggested I make an outdoor shower & use this for the curtain! Wow. Everything suggested have been such good ideas. Thank you all! I'll try to post pictures when I do end up doing something with it.

I have the Aug/Sept issue, but don't see the tutorial... mine is 2009. Is it in the 2008 issue?

Wow, those are all fantastic ideas! I never even thought of changing the color, Cozynana! Now my problem is there's only one! Should I make a sunshade for my garden area or the boat? Should I make purses or bags out of it? A wall tent would be great, but I'm not sure it's big enough.

I'll just ponder it some more and when I do something with it, I'll take pictures and show you all! Thanks to all of you for the fabulous ideas! If you have more, let me know!

They make fantastic purses, shopping bags, back packs and duffle bags. I saw a beautiful rug made out of a tarp - lots of top stitching with a non-slip backing.

A waterproof cover for outdoors lawn furniture.

My DH would claim it at our place and use it for the boat. He wants a canopy to put on the front half so bad. Maybe it would make a good shade maker for an area that you have no where to hide from the sun like out by a garden?

Sunshade for the west side of your porch (don't know if you even have a porch). Multiple shopping bags if you sew. Seat covers for an old pickup. Can you bleach it, redye it and use the fabric for a craft project?

Wow - only 1.99!! I would build a platform and make it a wall-tent. I really want a wall-tent:)

I have that one! Thanks for the reminder, Sherone. If nothing else, that's what I'll do.

Anybody have any other ideas? What else could this be made into?

Kyria,

If you can get your hands on a copy of MaryJanesFarm magazine for Aug/Sept, there is a great tutorial in there for hammocks.
