June Giveaway: Ladybug Apron ePattern!









A Sew Spoiled customer asked if I would design a Ladybug Apron after she had purchased the Ladybug Shoulder Bag. I was so excited about the project, I started to draw out designs seconds after her email. This was my favorite sketch and design. I hope you like it Suzanna! Thank you for your email!
Now it is time for a giveaway! 
One lucky winner will receive the New Ladybug Convertible Apron ePattern before it is available in stores!
The Ladybug Convertible Apron ePattern will be available July 4, 2010 for sale in my Etsy shop! The convertible apron means you can choose to wear it as a 
full or half apron. 
The giveaway will run through midnight on June 30, 2010 with the winner being announced on July 1, 2010. The winner will be chosen using Random.org. We will send it through email by July 2, 2010! All friends are welcome! What do you have to do to enter to win?? 

Just post a comment about a pattern idea you would like to see made. Something you want to make but you do not have the time to figure out. 
Thank you again Suzanna!
Good Luck Everyone!

Leah, Since you are known for your ladybug style. Why not try a pin cushion or pillow. May be both. Love your new apron pattern. Hugs.

What a cute apron! You are so creative. I love that it is convertible. I love your mommy and me backpack pattern. It would be great if you had a kids backpack pattern with a big opening at the top that could be used for school. Thanks!

I saw someone commented they wanted a laptop bag. I want a laptop cover that fits over the top and bottom but can be left on while I use it. Kind of like a sleeve they have for netbooks.
The apron is darling.

I'd love to see a cute and fashionable adult bib pattern. I admit it I'm a klutz when eating. I'm sure I'm not the only one with this issue.

I'd love to win this apron pattern.

Sweet Coin Purse Tutorial for Teacher Gifts

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.  Optional: Cut a 2"X2" square of your choice main fabric or lining. This strip of fabric is used to clip a key fob to your coin purse later....

Cute as a Button Bookmark Tutorial

These are called Cute as a Button Bookmakers. They are cheap, easy to make and are wonderful gifts!  All you need is  Bookmarkers/ PaperClips Size 45 or 1 1/8" Button Covers and kit Glue Gun Pliers (which you won't need if you get the flat back buttons). Step 1: Make a few fabric covered buttons.  These are size 45 or 1 1/8" buttons. Step 2: If you use normal buttons you will need to take the loops off to make them flat. However you can buy flat back buttons and not have to worry about the loop. Step 3: Add a dab of hot glue to the top of the large paperclip pad and place your fabric button on top of the glue. Step 4: Let it cool and it's ready to use! Happy Crafting!
