Inspiration to Sew More...

Sew a Straight Line has an adorable reversible skirt tutorial available on her blog! I am going shopping for fabric today for this pattern! This simple pattern looks easy and fast to make!

Make It Perfect has a new dress pattern called Sprout! I adore the hood and side pockets!

Sandi Henderson, from Portabellopixie, has a new book out called Sewing Bits and Pieces. Just the cover alone is inspiring! There are 35 New and creative projects inside.

This is the mail organizer from Noodlehead! I see this in my kitchen or sewing room! I love how she combined her craftiness and seamstress sides to make this great tutorial! Thank you Anna!

Have a great Weekend!

The reversible skirt is cute. But I can't figure out how to tie it, even after reading the link. Can't wait to see your version.

This time of year is so special to me because I get to show my gratitude for all of the hard work that goes into teaching my daughters. I love to make handmade gifts and this year is no exception. Since money does not grow on trees around here, I looked at my stash (I keep my scraps in hat boxes ) and tried to see what I had a lot of; small zippers, trims, Peltex strips ( from making iPad cases ), fabric scraps and some hardware for key fobs. So I set to work. Materials: Plastic multipurpose 5" Zipper Fabric Scraps Lightweight interfacing 808 Pellon Trims (We clipped key fobs with 1.5" swivel hooks onto our coin purses . There are tons of tutorials on making key fobs .) Step 1: Print out the Coin Purse Template PDF. Cut 2 main fabric, cut 2 lining and 2 interfacing using the template.
