I made this reversible toddler apron for my Aunts little girl. I know she will love it and be the talk of the town in Germany!
I actually made this about 3 years ago and just found it at the bottom of my sewing supplies. I have no idea why I put it there...maybe it fell? So I brought it back to see the world.
Here is another tote I really loved how it turned out. There is heavy weight stabilizer for the interfacing which keeps it shape. I do have to get the key clip for it still but in the mean time, here is what I made.
I love the way this turned out. It will be great for the beach or shopping, even toss in a couple of diapers if you have a little one. For me there will be little fishy snacks for my guy. But I think this is a style I will stick with for a while.
My first try with Burlap - tricky and itchy fabric. But I was able to make this half-moon bag. There are some things I need to tweek on it but I think it turned out okay...can you wash burlap?
Magnetic snap for the closure, zipper pocket
Another creation from today...man my shoulders hurt. Planning on hitting the gym soon, back to the bag. This is a simple tote with a zipper pocket inside and a toggle key clip - to hook your car keys to. Nice size bag.
I was able to make four of these pillows 16x16, with a linen look cotton for the back. The back is also an envelope opening for those quick washes.
Again I had another set of these bamboo handles and I found a great use for them! This is the same size as the pink bag 12x12. I am thinking of what handles to use for the larger bag...still thinking...
The bamboo handles I had stored away for about 5 years. I just was about to toss them thinking I had no use for them. But then I dreamed...that is right I dream about sewing! (Yes I am a dork) So this is what I 'dreamed' about...this is a small bag about 12x12, I am planning on making larger one in the future.
Mum's the word here! I used spider mum material to the body and had a lot of fun creating this bag. I have to say it is one of my new favorites to sew. I just need to make the pattern larger to fit all my stuff...this is a great bag for those women who don't have to haul all the baby toys and diapers...but a larger one is in the works, so those with little ones (like me) can toss everything in the bag, yes even the kitchen sink if need be!
Since I created an apron for my son, I decided to share my creations at the local store just down the road from me. I am on a roll now! The apron will fit toddlers 2-4 years old. I haven't settled on a price yet...I am just on a sewing kick right now!
I made this for my son. He love to cook with mommy and daddy, but all the apron's I found in the store were for little girls. So I ended up making him one. And he loves it - Trains of course!
I made this little bag for my Nanny in Montana. I know she will love it. I added ceramic buttons on either side of the bag. I can't wait till she gets it!
My instructions were, "I need a black bag like Katie's where I can toss everything in it, bright colors for the inside"
My mother in law came over with this fabric and asked me to make her a bag. This is a cute little summer/spring bag, I actually had a lot of fun making this one. I hope she likes it!
I created this cute wallet out of some scraps I think this is going to be a fun item to add to the bags I am already creating.
My mom needed a black handbag. So unbeknownst to me, my mother bought this fabric and asked me to sew it...so this is what I created. And as I was posting this picture I noticed I forgot the button. But I will quickly add that and then hand it to my mom on mothers day.
My family was running in the 100k Pullman Relay and my son was coming. I was planning on bringing my laptop since I can plug it in my car, but I didn't have a cover for it...so I quickly sewed one right before we took off...an hour later and VOILA!
