A few people asked for an elastic pocket tutorial when I posted my last diaper bag. I tried to explain how to do it in words but it got confusing so I decided to make another diaper bag and take pictures along the way. First off, here's where I got my material and here's what I turned it into:
First...a Jordy bag I made a while back: http://sewpixie.tinfoildreams.com/images/bag_1.jpg Second: I started on a messenger bag last week (used the tutorial here - and forgot to upload the pic! GOSH).
A while back I promised my sister I would make her a weekend travel bag.
Tutorial: Hand Sew Felt Using Blanket Stitch This post actually contains two tutorials involving the blankets stitch: How to sew two pieces of felt together using blanket stitch How to sew an edging using blanket stitch There are also some helpful extras, like: How to start if you aren't going all the way around How to handle corners How to stitch around circles What to do if you run out of floss in the middle It's a lot to pack into one post, but they all involve the blanket stitch, so I thought they should all be together.
