Latest Sewing Project

Here's what I've been up to this week. Recognize this fabric? From my little pouch I made? More pouches to come, by the way.

Inside is chocolate brown with a patterned pocket.

This item is sold.

My First Zipper

I've never sewn a zipper before, but I wanted to make a pouch to put stuff in (like lotion, lipgloss, etc) in my purse. It's part of an internal organization effort {smile}. It aint perfect, but not too bad for a self taught first timer.

Brought to you by the letter...

Today's post is brought to you by the letter T.

At Anthropologie I found some great fabric covered letters that would be oh so cute on a shelf in a baby's room. So I decided to make my own. Here's attempt #1. I think the fabric colors are too soft, and that brighter or darker colors would look better in this application. But not to worry, I bought another paper mache letter for covering, so I'll get a second chance.

Latest Project: the Clutch

Here's my latest project. I forgot to take measurements of the width, etc. so I'll tack that on later if I remember.
