Goodbye 2012, Hello 2013!

This year has been wonderful! We had 12 giveaways,  9 free tutorials written, 2 new ePatterns published, 2 printed patterns published (including Simplicity 1824 and Sew It All magazine, Goodnight gown), 1 Sew-A-Long (Braid Bag) and a trip to Spoonflower! I'd say 2012 been a fun year.

I hope that 2013 brings more ePatterns published (including the iPad Mini Case), Sew It All will publish another Sew Spoiled pattern in the spring, we have big plans for more tutorials and I have dreams of writing a book. It is hard to believe I have been blogging for the last 5 years! January 3rd will mark our 5 year blogiversary! Thank you for listening, writing comments and sharing your own experiences here with me.

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....
