Bow Clutch

I wanted to make something special for my friends in England and came up with this simple bow clutch.  I have seen them around on different blogs, but designed my own version.  It took a couple of takes to get the proportions perfect and voila!  I even had the zippers and fabric on hand!

Birthday Sewing Extravaganza

I love sewing for spring and summer birthdays!  Everything is so colorful! I have included ages with each gift and who it was for.  You can use them for your own siblings or friends!  I either used tutorials online, or made up my own designs.

 A Birthday Flower Crown using this tutorial. 

This was for my sister - age 26 :)

 

I enlarged the felt flowers quite a lot to take up more space for an adult size 

head vs. a child's head.  And I added a few mini Moleskines to the card too!
