Don’t think SEW! Before we went on vacation I started working on a pocketbook. I thought the pattern would be easy to follow since it was for beginners. No such luck! If I may say so myself, I did a good job getting it cut out and the interfacing ironed on. But once it came time to sew it together, I was lost. I ruined it before getting the first two pieces sewn together. I think I have enough material to cut out two new pieces but I don’t know if I will bother doing that or not. I have seen a couple of websites that give easy projects with a step by step video or pictures. I think I will start there, just have to find them again.
But for the meantime, I am working on another project. While we were shopping at the beach I saw these CUTE little crayon keepers. I think I remember them being $14.99. They looked so easy to make so I thought I would try one out of some left over material. (I am only making one row on mine)
Funny thing is, I find it very easy to do and I don’t even have a silly pattern to follow! I have a couple more spots to finish up and then find a ribbon to match and it will be finished. If this continues to go well I am going to buy some really pretty, full price material and make each of the girls one.
If you have any sewing tips or websites for beginners I would love to have them! I am planning on taking a class at the first of the year or our first school break. Until then I am on my own!!
