12 x 12 dossier de stand'' ... sind gar nicht so leicht zu finden und bei einschlägigen quellen scheinen sie immer gerade dann ausverkauft zu sein, wenn ich unbedingt einen brauche... aber es musste dringend einer her, stabil und mit schön viel platz. also habe ich kurzerhand aus der not eine tugend gemacht und mir selbst einen gebaut :-) - aus stabiler 12x12'' pappe: und so bin ich vorgegangen: zuerst die einzelteile mit dem cutter zuschneiden: 2 seitenteile, 1 boden, 1 längliches front-teil (auf dem foto links) und das gleiche in kürzer für die rückseite: die teile habe ich mit uhu-kreativ-kleber geleimt und kurz antrocknen lassen. danach habe ich alle geklebten kanten innen und außen mit scotch-invisible-klebestreifen (im gegensatz zu tesafilm matt und nochmal beklebbar) stabilisiert. hier der fertige rohbau: nun kommt der schöne teil - papier aussuchen und den ordner bekleben! das gute ist, dass er dadurch auch nochmal stabiler wird. von dem bunten und auf die rückseite geklebt. ich das orangene papier eingesetzt:
Stegosaurus Socks DIY Know a kid (or adult) who loves dinosaurs? Why not make them a pair of stegosaurus socks? They are quick to make and would be a great stocking stuffer for Christmas (which is just around the corner). I was inspired to make these because my daughter is kind of liking dinosaurs right now. I took the pics on Sunday at church and they got so many compliments on their socks! I was so focused on trying to capture the socks I didn’t get a good one of the shirts! To make some stegosaurus socks you will need:-One pair of knee high socks-At least one piece of felt, more if using different colors First start by making some stegosaurus spikes. I ended up using 5 on each sock for my daughters and 6 on each sock for the boys. Take the socks, turn them inside out, and cut right below the top down to right below the heel. Then place the spikes to see how you would like them. Then place the spikes on the inside of where you cut, making the “spiky” end pointing in. Pin each one in place.

Recessed Zipper How-To I've had a few questions about how to install a recessed zipper closure on a handbag. This has to be the longest tutorial written in the history of tutorials! I did my best to explain, but please let me know if anything is unclear. You Will Need: - (1) 14" zipper- (2) 15.5" x 2.5" inside upper fabric- (2) 15.5" x 16" inside lower fabric (I demonstrate using my own pattern, feel free to experiment!) * If you use your own tote pattern, be sure to alter your lining pattern to account for the extra fabric above the zipper - you want your outer and inner pieces to match after you install the zipper. 1. 2. Lift the presser foot and pull the zipper to the other side of the foot. Back stitch at the beginning and end, by the zipper stops. 3. 4. 5. Center the 2nd top strip along the zipper and sew. Place last bare side of zipper face down on last lining piece and sew. 6. 7. 8. You should be getting an idea of your finished bag! 9. 10. 11. 12. 13. 14. 15. 16. 17. 18. 19. 20. I hope that made sense!
Tutorial: Tiny Tin Bedroom I have talked about a little project I worked on. Where were we? Yeap, I had this really cute tin from the candy store, and I added pom-poms... The inside, I made it into a tiny bedroom for a cute little girl. Today, I will share a quick tutorial with you. Make Your Own Vinyl/Leather Look Handbag Straps - A Tutorial How awesome do these faux leather vinyl handbag straps look? If you want to make some great leather look straps from vinyl that don't show raw edges and messy threads, keep on reading because I can show you how. They are super easy to make and they turn out so good. I must say, I'm loving them. Recently, I took one of my bags down to the local quilting shop and the ladies working there marveled over my handles and thought they were real leather. A few months ago I was making a handbag from a pattern that called for premade leather straps, and after looking around, I found that they were either really cheap looking, really expensive or available only by order and had a huge wait for delivery. Finding the right vinyl is key, because with the wrong stuff you won't have that great leather look and it will be really hard to sew. There are a couple of other supplies you need; you can't just go crazy with the pleather yet. Let's get started: Materials: Teflon Presser Foot Rotary Cutter/mat/ruler
Rapunzel Wig January 20, 2012 Are you working on your first Christmas project? I can’t wait to see them! I was laying in bed recently chatting with The Hubs while he worked, aimlessly bouncing around blogs, websites, Pinterest and everything inbetween. How do you say no to that?! It was pretty quick to make, and she can get it off and on herself, which is huge for us both. She’s always trying to do things with that hair. She’s been so sweetly excited about wearing this wig. This wig is ridiculously easy to make! I put the hat on her head and folded it up until it fit her skull pretty close. Then I marked it with a pen, and stitched it down with a wide zigzag. Then I put it back on her head, with the folded part in front (to make sure it didn’t stick out funny), and marked the side part, then the drew a line from ear to ear. I placed 2 of my ladder back chairs 39″ apart and wrapped the yarn around them. Then I moved onto the crown. I stopped at the top of the ear, where my line stopped. Like this:
Tutorial-How to make interesting leather straps for purses I really like to experiment a lot in bag making.I am bored of the plain straps,so I made these chic straps for my new purse & clicked pics so I could belt out a quick tutorial :) Here is what we are going to make. Isn't it yummy looking:) For this you have to first cut strips from your leather/faux leather/rexin or whatever material you choose.The dimensions are 5" wide by whatever length you want.I have used 20".So cut 2 strips of 5" by desired length. Draw a line on the wrong side in the center of the strip lengthwise like this.Ummm.............OK the line is really faint but I hope you got the point,if not I am here:) Now fold one side lengthwise (wrong side together) so it touches the line in the center & sew. This is what you will get. Now fold the other side similarly & sew.Now you will have a strip 2.5" wide.Fold it in half again & sew the entire length.Sew 2 more lines at regular distance lengthwise throughout the strip.This is the result,a 1.25" wide strap.
