Hourglass Patterns© Learning: Correct Shape for Sewing Any Project with Square Corners

No More Dog Ears....Here's an easy fix:

Do this with all your sewing projects that have square corners.  A small change like this will bring your craft sewing to the next level.  Remove those floppy ears on your pillows and coaster for much better looking products.

Crafting During Quarantine: Using up your fabric remnants

Like everyone else, time on my hands means "clean up" for the sewing room.  This was such a great craft project I decided to make it into a pattern.  It's so easy to make:  2 Pattern Pieces, approx. 6.5" (depending on the thickness of your hair) of 1/4 Elastic, a small amount of fabric and 10-15 minutes.  This is a great way to use up your 100% silk scraps.  I plan on digging into my remnants over the next few weeks and make quite a few for the summer. 

Crafting During Quarantine

I'm taking some time off during quarantine to do some craft sewing.  I just love this little storage pod.  Instead of making the pattern myself, I dowloaded this free pattern from nancy's notions.  The link to this pattern is no longer available.  I believe they removed it from the site.

I did very simply quilting with some vertical lines.  It will be my goal over the next few weeks to do 1 or 2 craft projects per day.
