Nouveau : Mon cours en ligne de couture spécial débutant | L' Atelier d Emma Comme je le dis souvent ici, je ne couds qu’à la machine, et je sais que beaucoup d’entre vous n’ont pas cette habitude, mais aimeraient bien apprendre! Je vous ai donc préparé un cours en ligne de couture, spécial débutant : pas de collage ici, de produits magiques, pas d’art textile ou de piqué libre, il s’agit vraiment des bases pour celles qui ne savent pas du tout se servir d’une machine. Le but : réaliser votre première création, ce joli sac. Vous apprendrez à connaitre les différents éléments de la machine, à faire les premiers réglages, les premiers points, et à piquer droit. Bien sûr, comme pour tous les autres cours, vous pourrez visionner les vidéos autant de fois que vous le souhaitez, à votre rythme! Et je serai disponible chaque jour pour vous répondre sur le forum privé. Ce cours de couture est disponible dès aujourd’hui sur mon site 2 Mains Pour Créer, le premier site français d’ateliers créatifs en ligne! Vous aimerez peut-être:
Wallet-to-Tote On the Go ~ Tutorial Lorraine from ikat bag is a favorite around here… She has tons of fun tutorials on her blog and she’s joined us before with this wonderful Back to School Pencil Case tutorial. Today Lorraine shares a tutorial for a new summer essential, the On the Go Wallet-to-Tote! Construction includes three main parts: Assembling the Wallet, Assembling the Outer Bag and Making the Lining. The tote zips into a convenient wallet in this unique and handy design. From Lorraine: Hello, Everyone. These little bags have been around for as long as I can remember, and I thought they’d be a useful addition to the arsenal of summer gear I stash in my car and/or purse. I have three little girls, aged 3,4 and 6, and we’ve found that summer always takes us on adventures we hadn’t planned for– detours to farmer’s markets, dancing in the rain or treasure hunting en route to the park. We always appreciate an extra bag or two for our loot (and wet clothes)! Part One: Assemble the Wallet:You will need: Fold it up… Bags
Headband Refashion Our headband had a flower that was starting to look a little tired and worn so we made it new again! This braided ribbon could embellish many things— a hair clip would be cute too! These headbands would make great handmade gifts for little girls to make each other! Woven Ribbon Headband Gather a headband and about 4 1/2 yards of ribbon. Begin by finding the middle of the ribbon. Now bring the bottom ribbon up and make a loop and send it through the beginning loop that you just made by crossing the ribbon. Pull the right side snug. Now repeat for the other side, picking up the right side, making a loop and sending it up through the loop just made on the other side. Pull the left side snug. Pull right side snug. Continue braiding until you have a piece long enough to cover the headband. Bring the other side over and then trim. Hot glue ribbon to headband. Finished!

Pochette ecouteurs I use a little zippered pouch to carry around my earbuds since they are the fancy microphone ones and I don’t want them to break or get tangled. Some of you have commented that you are looking for some small, simple gift ideas. This is definitely simple to make, and a little more fun than the typical rectangular zippered pouch! I can see these as the perfect gift for teenage cousins or nieces or girlfriends or even teacher gifts. Fun, quick, and cute! It doesn’t take very much fabric so you could even use scraps! UPDATE: I have completely re-written this tutorial with twice as many bright, clear photos and more detailed instructions and it is available as a pattern in my pattern shop. First, download the pattern template HERE. Cut from main fabric: 1 circle 2 half circles 1 tab Cut from lining fabric: 1 circle 2 half circles Cut from batting (or medium weight interfacing, if you prefer): 1 circle 2 half circles You will also need a 1″ wide nylon 5″ or longer zipper. Time to sew!
Tuto : un noeud parfait! Les magasins de vêtements sont de plus en plus nombreux à proposer de jolis accessoires type boucles d’oreilles, colliers, broches, etc, souvent à base de tissus, de rubans ou de biais, largement dans nos compétences de couturières. En me promenant récemment dans les rayonnages d’une chaîne bien connue, mon esprit en mode “quelle idée vais-je bien pouvoir leur piquer aujourd’hui?”, je suis tombée en arrêt devant de très jolies barrettes à cheveux. Rentrée à la maison, j’ai rassemblé mon matériel et farfouillé sur le net pour trouver la technique qui me permettrait de faire un aussi joli accessoire que celui que j’avais repéré. Grâce à la technique donnée par Altea sur le blog Fiskarette, j’ai trouvé de quoi vous expliquer le secret d’un noeud-noeud parfait! Pour ce petit bricolage, vous avez besoin de : La première étape consiste à tracer sur le carton un gabarit qui va vous permettre de faire votre noeud en biais. Les deux “jambes du gabarit vont servir à faire les deux boucles du noeud.
DIY: Pyramid Wrist Bag Holiday parties all around and you really don't want to be carrying a large handbag that makes it difficult to dance or has you worrying about keeping an eye on it when you leave it aside. That is why I love wristlets! Spacious enough to carry your necessities and small enough to keep it around your wrist at all times. My friend Kostas over at Milloo handbags was kind enough to put together this Pyramid Wrist Bag tutorial so we can all make out own little party wristlets :) This wristlet measures approx 18cm/7'' so adjust your leather size accordingly if you want a smaller or larger version. You will need: - a sewing machine (it doesn't have to be a professional one as in the pictures) - metallic leather fabric (you can use any leather you prefer but do opt for an animal friendly version if possible) - a zipper measuring approx. 13cm/5" long - metallic clasp and rings/links for the strap - scissors - tailor's chalk or a fabric pen - pen and paper Now, lets sew it up. Sew the zipper on the opening.
