Emmaline Bag Sewing Pattern - WINNER


And the winner is.....

Kristie!

Kristie said "I love the bag pattern. It'd be perfect for summer. Such fun details too.
If I ever have the courage, I'd love to give your swimsuit tutorial a try. For now, I've only made the bookmarks and bibs. The fingerless gloves are calling out to me for the fall. Thanks for so many great tutorials!


Thank you everyone who entered.  It's so fun to hear about everyone's favorite tutorials. 

And keep an eye out for Janelle's newest pattern, the Steph In The City Bag.  
I'm pattern testing right now and can't wait to see the results!

Skirt Week


 Have you heard the news?  Crafterhours is hosting a whole month of skirt related posts and a little friendly skirt competition.

Check out all the info here.  

What's fun is that you can enter any skirt you've made since July 1, 2011.  So if you made a skirt in the past, you can enter it now!  I pulled out my Simplicity 2226 skirt, which I made last fall and still love and wear A LOT. 
 I also made this skirt last month and haven't had a chance to photograph and post, until now. 

I used the instructions from Simplicity 2226 to do the waist, but the rest is self-drafted.  The pockets were real, but ended up bunching funny, so I sewed them closed. 


Can't wait to see all the fun skirt posts starting on May 21.  

Do you have a skirt you're going to enter?

And, don't forget to enter the Emmaline Bag Pattern GIVEAWAY here.  The giveaway ends, Friday, May 18 at 11:59PM Eastern Time.
