So, how was your weekend? Mine was fun, but exhausting. I decided to go and visit TheSecondChild on Saturday. It’s a six hour drive, so I got up early and I was down there by noon. Anyway, last week. before all that excitement, I had fun making some little keychain cell phone id coin whatever-else-you-want-to-throw-in-there purses. They’re pretty easy to make and I thought you might like to make some too, so I took some pictures of the process and thought I’d write a little tutorial. Here’s a shot of the back of the purse with my cell phone tucked into the little pocket. So, shall we start? Some scraps of fabric — I used three different prints. Purse Back: Cut a 7″ long x 5 1/2″ wide piece of fabric. Quilt this little sandwich however you would like — stipple, straight lines, or make up your own. For the cell phone pocket, cut another piece of fabric, 8 1/2″ long x 4″ wide. Feed the elastic through the channel and secure the elastic at each end of the channel with a tacking stitch. Oops!

Le porte chéquier tout en 1 C'est avec une petite fierté personnelle que je poste ce billet. En effet je viens de terminer mon tout premier tuto couture! Je suis en pleine réalisation d'un colis pour une copinaute et la jolie voulait de la couture made by So Lovely. Je lui ai demandé de choisir un coupon ( comme ca j'étais au moins sur qu'il y ai un truc qui lui plaise ^^) et apres avoir faire un premier cadeau il me restait du tissu. En discutant avec elle je me rend compte qu'un petit portefeuille lui ferait plaisir.

Insulated Lunch Tote Tutorial Due to a large number of requests, I've updated the tutorial with the finished dimensions and a few clarifications. Enjoy! I designed this insulated lunch tote for Sandra's Handmade Christmas in July series. All the materials are machine washable, which for me, is what makes this worthwhile. Here's what you need: 2 pieces of medium weight fabric, main part of tote (16 in. Take the contrasting pieces of fabric and fold over 1/2inch along the long side, toward the wrong side of fabric. Now, we're going to shape the bag a little. Here's what it should look like. A little more shaping. Draw a line from the corner of the bottom cutout. Cut on your line, for all layers (2 main panels, 2 PUL and Insul-Bright layers) Now that we've got our bag shaped, here's some quick instructions if you want to make your own straps. Fold in half lengthwise, iron. Topstich all the way around strap to finish. OK, back to our lunch tote. OK, on to the zipper, my least favorite part of any project. Almost done!

Portefeuille Porte Monnaie Bon, on va voir si j'arrive à être claire, ce qui n'est pas gagné, je men excuse d'avance!! Voici le tuto du porte-feuille fait il y a quelques jours. Il est à adapter selon ce que vous souhaitez avoir comme taille et nombre de poches! Moi, j'ai choisi de tout réunir: cartes, monnaie, chéquier avec un petit stylo, papiers d'identité et de véhicule. Prenez un tissu relativement épais pour la tenue, ou bien doublez entre les 2 épaisseurs. J'ai utilisé une bande de tissu de 84 cm sur 23 (avec les marges), qui fait directement la doublure extérieure à la fin de la réalisation. Commencez par préparer la partie porte-monnaie, avec 2 poches à cartes sur le devant si vous le souhaitez. Ce qui ressemble au final à une trousse plate: Définissez sur papier ce dont vous avez besoin. Attaquez votre grande bande de tissu par le bas en laissant un centimètre de marge pour la couture finale. Une fois vos poches définies et repassées, cousez le milieu sur l'envers en commençant par le haut! Puis les 2 côtés.

THE SHRUG Saks Fifth Avenue features this season’s trendy cover up, the shrug by Vince. The shrug pattern is an ideal project with which to experiment with fashion design for several reasons — it is knitted or sewn in one piece, there is minimal finishing, it is easy to wear, and relatively quick to make. The Vince version is an angora knit but can be made up in any stretch fabric. Try mohair, stretch velvet, or double knit. Plus, these shrug patterns are easy to adjust. Cuff-to-cuff: 45 ½ (46 ½, 47 ½)” Width at back: 16 ½ (17 ½, 18 ½)” Top-to-hem: 21 (22 ½, 24)” NOTE: The greatest stretch of the knit fabric runs around the girth of the body (usually the crosswise grain from selvedge to selvedge). Measure a rectangle 21″ by 45½” (length X width) for a size SMALL. Measure 14½” in from each short end of the rectangle and mark as A,B,C, & D according to the diagram. Measure 4½ inches down from the top & up from the bottom of each long end of the rectangle and mark as E, F, G, & H. Like this:

Imagine Fabric Blog: How To Make a FABRIC BOWL Imagine Fabric Making a Fabric Bowl is as easy as ABC and it is a lot of fun. Just follow our step-by-step instructions and within an hour, you will be awarded with your very own Fabric Bowl. Let's get started. Select your fabric of choice - I picked some beautiful Joel Dewberry Fabric for my Fabric Bowl project. Used the size of your favorite bowl. Measure the bowl from side to side going underneath the bowl. Cut two fabric circles , put the two fabric circles left side together and use a thick interfacing that has glue on both side to iron the two fabric circles together. Now draw a circle in the center of one of your fabric circles. Now divide the fabric circle into eights. Continue to do so all along the "eights" lines you have previous drawn. You should end up with 8 triangles. Now choose a zig zag stitch of your liking and stitch all along the circle in the center of your fabric circle. Now it is time to zig zag stitch the triangles you have cut. Start to zig zag stitch from the inner circle.
