Gillian is having a “spa” birthday party this year, so I’ve been trying to find things to do and things to buy and/or make for the party. One thing I think you would find in a spa is eye/sleep masks. The ones I found in the store were all either pink or blue, so...
Last year I bought this extremely comfortable pair of cotton capri’s. This year they are way too big. I’m not big on removing a million seams to make pants smaller, but I have read blogs where it can be done. I wanted an EASIER and FASTER way to make the waist smaller on these...
Usually when I made a skirt from jeans I just cut straight across right at the crotch and add some fabric below that. But the other day at my Girl Scout meeting one of my Girl Scouts was wearing a jean skirt she made from a pair of jeans. Hers were made completely out...
We are going to Disney next week and since we will be walking around all day in the Florida heat I figured it was a good idea to have water bottles with us. But I don’t want to be taking the bottles out of our backpack every five minutes when the kids want them,...
Okay, maybe not fabulous! Haha. My daughter’s friend has a pair of flip flops with ribbons galore and Hannah saw these and wanted a pair. I am not one to buy my kids something if they already have it. She already has flip flops, she doesn’t need a second pair. So I simply cut...
A friend once gave me this gorgeous purple fabric. Back before I knew how to sew, I knew I wanted this fabric to be a skirt so I just wrapped it around my waist and tied it. That never worked well on windy days because the skirt would blow open. Now that I know...
With just a washcloth and some ribbon, make a travel toothbrush keeper! It’s sew easy! My Pin-spiration {clicking photo will take you to pin on Pinterest}: I made a total of five of these today and each took roughly five minutes. Yes, they are that easy to make! Fold up the bottom part of...
Today we’re making a car insurance keeper. First, choose two strips from your jelly roll and cut three 14″ pieces off each strip {giving you six 14″ pieces}. Sew three strips together. Sew the other three strips together. Iron your seams. Add fusible web to one of your fabric panels. Now fold the bottom...
Did you think I was out of jelly roll strips? I’m not!! There are still plenty left. After today’s project you’ll have about 14 strips left, and if you’re wondering: we’ve used 26 so far, including today’s project. For our camera strap, which is probably the easiest thing you will ever make, choose two...
Continuing my “What can you make with a jelly roll?” series, today I bring you: an eyeglasses case! For this project you’ll need to choose four strips from your jelly roll. Again I’m using Reunion Jelly Roll Sweetwater for Moda, still working with the same roll… project number four and still more to go!...
