CD recycler. (Text not included!)


Stitch any design you fancy using then the first colour of this outline. Remove hoop from machine and fix and old CD on the back of the circle and add a second layer of fabric. Return to machine and stitch second colour. If your fabric doesn't fray that is enough. If you prefer or the fabric will fray, add the satin stitch outline. (Third colour.)

I know that I'm going to regret asking this question and making myself out to be a complete idiot.....BUT......have I understood correctly that the second colour stitch is machined through the CD and the additional layer of fabric? Okay, I've asked..............now you can shoot me down in flames......LOL

It stitches round the CD, not through it! Just make sure you fix the CD inside the lines. Of course, if you want to add another design, you do it before you fix the CD in place.

use fabrics that frey and do a double final sew out to really secure the fabric threads and use pinking shears to cut out. Try using those old denim jeans you have kept at the back of the wardrobe that are now way to big for you since your diet.

I'm glad this design has come to the top again. My old CD's don't scare the birds in the orchard so I surely will use them for plaques. Thank you so much for sharing this brilliant recycling idea.

This will be great to use the test ( A Round TUIT)
One question how does one FIX the CD to the back?

eggyannie by eggyannie 28 May 2012

A littel double sided stickytape will hold the disc in place whilst you place the second piece of fabric at the back of the disc a line stitch will hold the fabric in place and you then trim it and put in the finally overlocking stitch
or at least i presume that is how it works. I wil have a go and see what happens.
love this idea for coasters.or even fridge maganest by simply sticking a small magnet on the rear. annie

eggyannie by eggyannie 28 May 2012

thats how i understand it to be I will have a go and see what happens,great for coasters or even a fridge magnet simply glue a magnet on the rear. annie

spendlove by spendlove 28 May 2012

That is a good suggestion - I used spray adhesive. As you say, it only has to hold while the outline stitches. I made mine into fridge magnets.

Interesting, how careful do you have to be so the needle does not hit the cd?

spendlove by spendlove 22 Apr 2012

The outline is a few mm bigger han the cd. Position the CD within the outline and fix it with spray glue or tape so that it doesn't move.
