More pincushions...

Another triangle pincushion. I like how this pattern turned out. I like it better than the circle. Circles are hard to get so they actually look round. The dark jean material is the same fabric as my mom's garden tote, as noted here.

Corrie's Circle Pincushion

So this is for Corrie. For those keeping track (Corrie), it does match the garden tote I made for her. Corrie gave me some dried lavendar many moons ago and I stuffed this with some of it. I promised her a pincushion if she gave me some lavendar. I never said WHEN, though! LOL

Jane's Garden Tote

We don't exchange gifts like we used to. It's getting harder to know what someone might want anyway. So I decided to make my aunt a garden tote. We both like orange. I think this looks great! The outside pockets are furniture fabric samples and the handle is a thrift store belt! So chic!

Generation T ~ T-shirt redeux

So I check out MANY books from the library looking for inspiration. I have checked out a few t-shirt redo books. This book I haven't looked at yet but there was an article in the Grand Rapids Press today. Checked out the blog and found a project for today:

T-bird Halter Top

Start with a t-shirt








Cut the sleeves off just inside the seam








Cut the bottom off and save it for the drawstring









Cut of top just under the neckline









Cut the back layer only from armpit to armpit
Sew the front top over about an inch





Feed the drawstring through


Viola!

Easy peasy!
