VIDEO: APRON + FREE PATTERN

You know what goes great with your oven mitts??
You guessed it.
An APRON!….with a free pattern….and only 30 minutes to whip one up.
YESSSSSSS.

We’ve sewn a HALF APRON before HERE. But many of you asked for a full bib apron, so here you go! It’s one size fits most. And there’s a pocket!…for chilling, holding stuff, or looking like a baking pro.
.
This project is great for beginners (and beyond) because we sew a bunch of straight lines. And you can mix and match fabrics for pockets and straps.
Okay, LET’s MAKE APRONS!

Sewing Machine Recommends:
My favorite sewing machines are the Baby Lock Genuine Series. These are entry level machines that have a broad price range, so if you’re not sure how deep you want to go on sewing haha, these are awesome. I have the Brilliant and Joy machines from this series. These are what I sew with in all of my videos.

VIDEO: OVEN MITT + FREE PATTERN

Let me give you a hand with the holiday shopping.
Skip the stores and just make a pair of Oven Mitts!
These are so easy, and fun, and I have a FREE PATTERN for you.
YAY!

If you’re curious how many oven mitts I made in this process…..well, a lot! Pattern-making is such an evolution, with tweaks, and adjusting, and trying this-and-that. And every time I make change to the pattern, the only way to test it, is to make another pair!

But I wanted to get the pattern just right—not too tight, not too lose, not too long, not too stiff, not too complicated! I should have called it the Goldilocks Mitt. I hope you love it! And make lots and lots for everyone you know.

Ready to sew?? Watch the video here!…..


Supplies needed to make 1 Oven Mitt:
• 1 Fat Quarter (or 1/4 yard) of fabric for the outer layer
• 1 FQ (or 1/4 yard) of fabric for the lining layer
• 1 FQ of Quilt Batting* (cotton or other used for making quilts)
• 1 FQ of “Quilted Ironing Board Cover” fabric (or other similar fabric)
• Small amount of double fold bias tape
*Note: Quilt batting is an additional layer to what is shown in the video. You may chose to add this or not. It will make the project slightly more bulky to sew. But the added layer is nice for ample heat protection on your oven mitt. I recommend.

VIDEO: DIY Fabric Bunting. FREE Pattern!

I’ve got a fun, fast project for you.
It uses a bunch of cute fabrics.
You can make it any size.
AND IT COMES WITH A FREE PATTERN.
AND A VIDEO! 

Yaaaaaaaayyyyy.


I guess the question is….
What do you call this little decor?
Is it a Bunting? A Banner? Garland? Day Maker?

Yes. It’s definitely that.
Hang up the bunting for any occasion and it brightens a room.

My favorite part of the project?—gathering a bunch of fabrics that look cute together. And you don’t need much!
This is a GREAT STASH BUSTER.
I used my own fabric collection called — PICKLE JUICE — for FIGO Fabrics. It’s got awesome throwback 70s vibes.

I cut it out.
Sewed it up.
And threw myself a party.

A faux party.
Or not! How about we celebrate the 1989 Taylor’s Version album that came out TODAY (or late last night). Yesssss.
That’s what this garland’s hanging for.
