March 2013 Giveaway!

This new book called Carnival of Felt Making by Gillian Harris is so whimsical! I instantly fell in love with the felt bird and hand bag inside. The slippers are adorable too.
It is hard to know just where to start. That is why you should check out the authors site called Gilliangladrag. She also has a felt shop in Dorking, UK and an online site with fun sewing and felt making kits!! It is very hard to part with this book but it is our March Giveaway!!
We are so excited to be able to share this wonderful book with you. Thanks to Macmillan publishing, this giveaway is for one book to a lucky blog winner.

I'll be making mug rugs and buying matching mugs for my mom and 2 sisters, and we are having a reunion weekend together. I'll also make little zipper bags for all of us, and perhaps a couple of other small items. Fun stuff!

Sweet Coin Purse Tutorial for Teacher Gifts

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.
