I am so excited to share the Smart Pocket Pattern! I really love how versatile this pattern is. It is only $9.95 and only available in my Etsy Shop. This pattern has 20 colorful pages, 18 steps, full size templates for everything including the armband, 62 pictures and clear instructions on how you can make your own Smart Pocket. This makes a great gift for a friend or family member who wants to carry their Smart Device wherever they go. If you like to make handmade gifts this pattern is a must have!

As soon as I made one for myself, I had 4 people in my family ask for one and 2 from work!

Purchasing the Smart Pocket Pattern also gives you the right to make these for your online shop, the only stipulation is you have to state in the description, “The Smart Pocket is a Sew Spoiled design.”

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 .

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!
