The day when we would be using machines that won’t be powered by the little socket somewhere in the wall is still a couple of decades away. But this does not keep some designers and inventors from thinking that the calories burned during exercising can solve the energy crisis to some extent by powering daily use machines with pedal-power. These machines not only serve the purpose they are actually built for but they also reduce the number of hours you spend in a gymnasium.

Make my Week #35 - draft your own pattern
i don't have one, but here's how you can easily draft your own: ::take a pinafore/singlet/dress in the correct size and trace around it - i only traced half then folded and cut the other half - adjusting length as required: ::it should look a little something like this:: ::to make the back piece, match the side seam and opposite shoulder seam. the rest entirely depends on your preference in curves:: **if don't have enough fabric to cut as a solid piece, use these two pieces (cutting 2 of the back) and add side seams** ::to make it a solid pattern piece (like i used) simply tape sides together, fold at centre front and cut on fold in fabric:: pretty easy huh? (i must apologise for pukey picture quality. it seems winter is throwing a tanty about heading north so it's dark,dark,dark indoors today)

French chaise made from card stock
This is the project for this month. This French chaise is made from card stock, foam core and mat board. You could trim off the front of the chaise and make a chair. The chaise in front, the one with the patterned fabric is a little longer than the pattern included. Below are the patterns. For a form for the back I used the top of a solid air freshener container. Measure down from the small end 2 1/8 inches. Cut out your back pattern and trace it onto a piece of card stock. Mark a center line on the front. Cut the back out, don't cut on the line this time. Spread wood glue on the back of your back. Place the first back onto card stock and press all of the glue out. Spread glue on the back you just cut out and place it onto another piece of card stock. Press all of the glue out and make sure you have all 3 layers glued together well. Now, you cut the back out following the line. Mark a center line on the back of the back, too. (I like these rubber bands. Leave this to dry. Cut the base out.
DIY paper clip earrings | withonehandwavingfree
Recently I felt myself falling into sort of a creative rut. I took a little break from crafting and began perusing my favorite blogs as well as the always inspiring craftgawker. During my ventures, I stumbled upon a bunch of really fun new DIY projects, one of which I had to try right away -paper clip earrings. I love when I already have all of the materials required to complete a project. Anyway, after finishing one pair I was hooked. Not only did they turn out really cool, I strangely enjoyed the therapeutic motion of winding string around wire. paper clip earrings what you will need: As far as the glue is concerned, one that dries clearly and quickly is ideal. Once the edges are all open, you will shape it into a triangle. Add a tiny bit of glue to a small area of the paper clip, as it will dry pretty fast, and wrap the string around and around in a tight fashion. That’s my friend Laura wearing her new earrings. Of course, you will need some music for inspiration. Like this:
Dog sanitary panty diaper nappy patterns | Mimi & Tara | Free Dog Clothes Patterns
Many of you have asked me for a female dog sanitary panties, so here I bring you the patterns that can be used as a diaper with a sanitary napkin or simply like a cute shorts for summer time. There are several designs that can be done, for this design I was inspired by the image below, that seems pretty simple, comfortable and beautiful. You have to measure your dog's waist and choose the correct size, to do that please follow the table below: Size XS-8 inch waistline Size S-10 inch waistline Size M-12 inch waistline Size L-14 inch waistline Size XL-16 inch waistline Size XXL-18 inch waistline Please note that you have to measure your dog's WAIST, NOT CHEST, so measures should be taken at the waistline, the narrow point of the abdomen between the ribcage and hips. If needed you can make bigger the dog's tail hole. To decorate the panties, we can sew some bows, or a lace binding on the back. I highly recommend sewing a lining in the intimate zone for more protection. Happy sewing!!
