A Tutorial - How to Draft a Pattern and Make a Zippered Purse with a Flat Bottom

monatelier.frblog.net - Blog mon blog : Tuto pochette très pratique J'ai trouvé cette pochette super mignone et très pratique alors je m'en suis inspiré pour faire celle d'Isabelle. Voir aussi ma pochette en cliquant ici. C'est une pochette dans laquelle on met tout son bazar (clés, papiers, crayons etc ...) et quand on change de sac, on a juste à prendre la pochette ! Voici comment je l'ai faite, sachant qu'il y aura des améliorations. 1/ Il vous faut un tissu de 80 cm sur 31 cm minimum en tissu souple imperméable (genre toile de tente ou rideau de douche). (Si vous souhaitez mettre une doublure, ajouter un morceau de 30 cm sur 31 cm) Couper les pièces comme indiqué ici, en ajoutant 1,5 cm pour les coutures, sauf pour le haut des pièces dites « côté » où on ajoutera 3 cm (voir schéma). 2/ faire l’ourlet haut des poches 3) Mise en place et couture des poches extérieures .Assembler les parties poches aux « côtés » par un surfil en bas (dos des poches sur devant des côtés) . Positionner vos objets et marquer l’emplacement des couture des poches. Coudre.

Scrap It: Gift Card Case or Biz Card Holder Ahhhhh, the gift card. It seems to be such a common choice, and not just as a last minute grab for someone hard to shop for. Gift cards appear to be the go-to gift for anyone and any occasion. Let's face it - they're easy to find, quick to buy, come in any denomination, and are... stunningly impersonal. Maybe it's just me, but a gift card seems to say, "I couldn't really be bothered to find you a present; how about you go get yourself a little something?" But who am I to rain on the gift-giving parade?! Our gift card holders finish at 9¼" x 2¾" flat and 4" x 2¾" folded. Any Sewing Machine (we recommend the Janome 3160QDC) Insert your gift card and close the flap.

Tissue case tutorial I’ve used my new sewing machine to make these very simple tissue cases from scrap of linen fabrics. They are basically a lined fabric rectangle folded to meet at the center. I make the outer fabric longer than the lining fabric so it automatically folded inside, because I don’t like the lining fabric showing at the edge. It also eliminates the need of topstitching. The tutorial is only two pages, but please tell me if something is not clear in it.

The Crafty Cupboard: How-To: Business Card Holder With the Creative Estates coming up soon (as in, next weekend!), I thought I’d get on the ball and have something to hold my “business” cards while I am there. Here’s how I made mine:You Need:2 fabric pieces cut 5 1/2” x 4 1/2” (one will be lining, one the outside. You can do the same fabric for both, or different fabric to mix things up)2 fabric pieces cut 2 1/2” x 4 1/2”1 fusible fleece piece cut 5 1/2” x 4 1/2”Small hair elastic (I used my daughter’s) – not pictured (Warning: lots of pictures ahead. To begin, take your 2 1/2” pieces and iron a double 1/4” hem down one long side. Top-stitch your hem in place. Then, place your beautifully hemmed pieces on top of your lining piece so your raw edges line up. Iron your fusible fleece piece to your top piece (no pic) and put it right sides together with your lining piece. On one of your 4 1/2” sides, insert your hair elastic in between the lining and the top piece. I used a dull colored pencil to get my corners all pointy. Go ahead!!!

Tutorial :: Summer Sunglasses Case Summer is here!! We need something cute, am I right?? While me and the hubby were out today having breakfast with little Sophia, I complained about how I was getting old and wrinkled from squinting in the sun.
