I’ve been playing around with some new bags. I know what I’m going for, and I’m excited to see what is in my head become tangible. I’ve had AMH’s gorgeous LouLouThi velveteens sitting on the shelf above my sewing machine for about nine months. I couldn’t cut into them! I think I’ve found my project for them...
I’m definitely having an off day. Its pretty much the opposite of my productive can’t-stop-me days from last week.

I’ve been doing the whole Pinterest thing for a while now. I have to admit that most of my pinning is done for laughs- I could live in the humor category. But I also pin useful things here and there. Often they are based on color and pattern that I am inspired by. I very...
I bought Layla a stroller for her baby doll forever ago at Target. It was only $8 so I didn’t expect the seat it came with to last forever – especially since Layla thought she could use it for herself. It immediately ripped, and though I’ve repaired it many times, it was time for it to...
I’m a machine today. I woke up with the drive to get a lot done, and that’s exactly what I’m doing. I have to work on the island tomorrow, so really I’m trying to finish two days worth of projects today. First up, I made a dog sack for Olivia. What the heck is a...

love them! beautiful. maybe a tiny dot of velcro as a closure as opposed to the snap? just a thought. although i loathe working with velcro ;)
I love these. I havent bought any of these velveteens but this would be a great little gift. I wonder if you stabilized the snap it would work better. Did you use fusible fleese? Those velveteens are the best thing ever!
I used a nice cotton batting as opposed to fusible fleece. I work with fusible fleece a lot, but I was attracted to batting because it has a more fluid movement than the fusible fleece. And I’ve been think about stabilizing the snap, but I hate to puncture another piece of velveteen only for it not to work. That may sound silly, but velveteen is expensive stuff! Do you have any suggestions about stabilizing it that wouldn’t make it too bulky?
