NEW! Lunch Bags Pattern

I am so excited about my latest pattern... Lunch Bags!  Now for sale on my Etsy site.

The Lunch Sack is a great replacement to the traditional brown bag. It features a ribbon closure and vinyl coated fabric for the lining for easy cleaning. I love the versitility of this bag as you can use it in place of a gift bag or gift wrap and the recipient received two gifts in one!

 The Lunch Box is superb for the kids lunch. It features a zipper closure and vinyl coated lining for easy cleanup.

It works great with the plastic lunch containers for easy food separation.  Also great for baby bottles, snacks, toys, and more!

My First Pattern!

I have created my very first pattern and it is for sale now on Etsy!  A Ruffled Tank and Raggy Flip Flops and Hair Bow... Rags to Ruffles.

For an added bonus, here is my free tutorial for some scrappy flip flops and hair bows. 

Supply List:

1 Moda Honey Bun
1 Pair of plain colored flip flops
2 Hair Rubber bands
Scissors
Tape Measure


Instructions:

Step One:
Cut 52 strips measuring 1 ½” x 6”. 32 for flip flops and 20 for hair rubber bands.

Step Two:
Tie a double knot around the top part of the flip flop… Repeat this so you have 8 ties on each side.
Please note: depending on the size of your shoes, you may need more or less strips.

Step Three:
Repeat these same steps for the hair bows except tie the knots on a hair rubber band. You will need about 10 strips for each rubber band. Scrunch them all to one side of the rubber band, this will allow you to tie off the hair and keep all the tied strips at the top of the hair.

Step Four:
Create matching shoes and Hair bows for every outfit!

Free tutorial is also included as a bonus project in the pattern.

Stay tuned for more to come!
