"karikás" táska. Tilda alapján: 40 x 50 két féle anyagból - 2x kiszabva színt színére fordítva, az egyik 50 cm-es részt végigvarrjuk. A rövidebb oldalakon kimérünk 20-20 cm-t, és a levarrt 50 cm-es oldal irányába levarrjuk. Felhajtjuk az anyagot a béléstől, majd összeillesszük a két lapot. Nagy lapostányér segítségével megrajzoljuk az íveket: a bélésanyagon helyet hagyunk a kifordításhoz, a külső textilen is megrajzoljuk az íveket, csak a már meglévő varrásig varrunk, a felesleget levágjuk, miután kifordítottuk és levasaltuk az éleket, a szélétől 5 cm-re húzunk egy segédvonalat, ami a karika bevarrásában segít, a karikákat én zippzárvarró-talppal varrom be.

Being a mom sometimes means walking around with food or boogers on your shirt, and sometimes not getting into the shower till afternoon . we’re busy driving kids to school and activities, busy folding laundry, busy wiping away tears, busy reading bed time stories, busy making it all better, busy cooking meals, busy keeping house, busy cleaning toilets.
Yes, not so glamorous indeed, but probably the most important. We are the ones who help mold, uplift, and carry our children when they need us to. We are the ones they turn to when hurt, scared, or proud. We are their mothers and we have been given the opportunity to love them like no one else in this world.that makes a mother beautiful in my eyes.so to help mothers feel a little more pretty on the outside, I’ve created this lovely flower corsage, made out of satin ribbon. supplies:one yard of satin ribbon (thicker size)one small circle of feltone pin for the backhot glue. Restylin' - Shirts to Skirts. Thanks to Leigh Miller, a rising senior phenom, for giving me the opportunity to try out a great idea that I found on the CRAFT magazine blogsite for restyling men's shirts.
Leigh's keen sense of style, her superb eye for color and texture, and her all-around-wonderfulness are truly gifts to all of us women sewists and crafters who were blessed with solely male offspring - thanks for indulging me, Leigh!! So here is the story - it's a simple one! You turn old shirts into way cool, great fitting skirts with only a seam ripper and 4 straight seams! And here's how we did it! Visit your local Salvation Army or Goodwill thrift shop and buy (for less than $3 each) 2 or 3 men's long sleeve button front shirts. Detach the sleeves from the shirts as close to the armhole seams as possible. Stitch the seams together and - voila - you have a skirt. And here is the finished product! Thanks to Leigh and CRAFT magazine!

Thanks so much for the book love! I feel so supported and good about the whole thing. . .it's hard to put into words, except to say thank you. I am not really able to stay focused on any one big project right now (like the the quilt and blanket I have started and not finished for this baby) so, I jumped to something else and I tried my hand at some felt covered barrettes last week and these are quick and easy. They go together so fast, it won't make me crazy if we lose them.
I had stolen some glances at a pair at a b-day party last week and these are a close approximation of what that toddler was wearing. I think she really wanted me to stop messing with her hair. I just pretended it was normal to take a child's barrette out, examine it, and hastily try to get it back in her hair unnoticed. . . . and didn't make eye contact with the mom (bad me). . I think I got away with it. 1. 2. 3. 4.

Vively Online: Tutorial: Reversible Slouchy Beret. Easter is in the air. I had one of those moments in Target the other day while walking (well running, actually, as I had a screaming toddler in my cart) by an endcap, and instinctively, reflexively even, bent down and grabbed this fantastic cake platter as we sped past. The first thing that popped into my head to describe it was "Barnyard Chic" -- check out the chicken wire detail on the foot!

Strange in that I don't usually get this kind of inspiration until either, a) after the holiday has passed, or b) it's so close to the holiday that there isn't enough time to complete the project.
In any case, not only did I finish the eggs in time, but I've come up with a little tutorial (my first!) Far enough in advance for anyone else who wants to make fabric Easter eggs, too.
