My fave project of 2010 was slipcovering an old ugly chair which now looks awesome in my bedroom. My project for 2011 is sprucing up my sewing room/office space.

My favorite project this year was a cute little diaper bag I made for a friend. I plan on starting early this year on Christmas gifts and making some very cute little wristlets for random gifts.

I think I enjoyed making a mug rug for my friend. That was fun and quick. I'll have to do some more.

Fave project: a quilt using Authentic fabric with minky backing. For 2001 I will make a quilt for myself using my all-time favorite fabric, Neptune, which I've been saving. OK, hoarding. Thanks for the giveaway.

I had a lot of fun with sewing projects in 2010 but my favorite was probably the table runner I made for my husband's grandmother ~ the "happy tears" when she opened it were absolutely priceless. :)

I'm going to sound like a total brown noser but my favorite thing I made this year was the Sew Spoiled Travel Tote. It was my first time participating in a sew-a-long. I had so much fun. It was also my first time making a bag and I love it. I get tons of compliments on it. Thanks Leah!

Favorite? That's so committal! Just kidding, kind of hmmm. Oddly enough, it's the project that didn't end up working just right, but the experience was awesome. It was this one http://msfineprint.wordpress.com/2010/07/18/my-first-from-scratch-pattern/. My first from scratch pattern. Which, ended up having too much pull at the shirred band and too, uh, much "flight" at the sleeve.
But it taught me that I am learning useful things about construction and I'm a more able sewist than I thought I was. Random, but true.
I'd love to win! msfineprint at gmail dot com

My favorite project was a complete bedroom linen set for my 20 mo old daughter. Her new little sister was taking over her old room so the new room had to be fabulous. I sewed a duvet cover, tons of pillows, bed skirt and lots of curtains. We both love it. I am blessed to have two little girly girls to sew for!!!

My favorite project was sewing a bag of my own pattern design! It was hard, but fulfilling! :)

My favorite project this ear was a bag. It reminded me why I like to sew, and gave me the confidence to do more. This year (2011) I want to start to do more for the home.

My favorite project of 2010 was a jean jacket that was boring and too short that I added some cute fabric to. I wear it every day.

I would say my favorite projects were 2 knit outfits I made my daughters. I overcame my fear of knits and the outfits turned out so cute. Thanks for the great giveaway, love Amy Butler.

I haven't sewn anything in a long time, but just bought myself a new sewing machine a few weeks ago. I'm looking forward to becoming fast friends with it! My first project is going to be to make new throw pillows for the living room sofa. :)

My favorite project was my Burda dress. It was a very simple project, but with my choice of fabric, it comes out looking very unique and classy.

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 .

This strip of fabric is used to clip a key fob to your coin purse later. We used a 1.5
