They keep getting better and better!!! Yippie Skippie.. I wish I was at home to whip up some of these things.. but I will just drool at work on my keyboard… hey maybe it will short out and I have the perfect excuse to go home..hahaha! I wish!
I love the tutorial for sewing a mirror into a bag and the tool tape on stretch fabrics tutorial is a great idea!
Wow, such great projects, I’ll have to try them all!
I think this might be the best batch of tutorials yet! I love that square bottomed bag and the casserole carrier! And the little apron dress is adorable. Thanks!
More great tutorials! Awesome!!
I’m really enjoying all these great tutorials!
This is the best set of tutorials ever! There are three I want to try right now.
This is why we don’t need sewing books. There are so many talented sewists out there whose tutorials are even better than what we can find on sewing books.
These are so beautiful, but what I have to try for sure is Roller Coasters. The coasters are very original and it seems easy to make them.
I also like best bibs!
I think the little lunch bag looks easy and could give good fabric satisfaction! I’ve also added Ayumi’s blog to my faves…it’s new and I’ve seen other things from her and I think she’s someone to watch. Her camera case is lovely too and she has good clear pictures and instructions. Not bad for someone who doesn’t regularly speak or write in english!!!
love the lunch bag! what a great idea and i’ve book marked it for completion later this week!
Love the ruffle pants!!!
The jeans into bermuda shorts is exactly what I have been looking for for all my worn out jeans. Thanks!
I love these tutes I am wanting to try the hobo lunch bag.
I’m loving these! Especially the toddler bib and the roller coasters. Another great month on SMS!
I love the “go fish” tutorial. Will put that on the list of things to make for xmas this year.
I’m in l-o-v-e with the quilting tuts – the multi-stripe baby quilt as well as the “writing” (I’ve been sying to know how that’s done. Thought you had to have a fancy machine!) But, I have to say my fave is the apron dress, only because I know that my kid would live in this all summer with her bathing suit under, lol. Such wonderful ideas!!!
The boot cut to bermudas tutorial is seriously *exactly* what I was looking for. I have a pair of cutoffs I cut off last summer (and the denim from the rest of the leg) and I’d been trying to figure out how I could neaten them up. I can’t wait to try this!
I am totally making that casserole holder….and a matching dress for Sunday potluck fashion heaven!
Glad to hear that people are finding the jeans to bermudas useful. I figured that I can’t be the only one with old jeans gathering dust.
Every one is so talented. That is a really cute apron dress tutorial. I would love to make one for my daughter.
That apron dress is darling!
That “Go Fish” tutorial is so great!!! Perfect sewing project for my grandson.
OMG!! Where do I even begin??
OK, the apron tutorial has a little tip in there about turning a narrow tie…it’s worthy of its own tutorial. It’s short and sweet, but covers a topic that many of us always wondered about. Very smart and usable for so many things.
I love the jeans to bermuda shorts tutorial….gonna have to try it!
Love the new links. Thanks for putting them up!
Love the tutorials. Lots of great ideas.
These tutorials are great. I enjoyed reading the ‘writing’ on quilts.
the fabric brooch looks tdf! ambika has a keen eye for style
I am just now printing the pattern for the best bibs!!!
Oh my gosh, so many projects so little time and how does one make the decision on which one to start first! LOVE the bermuda shorts idea!
I like those ruffle pants!
