Following the "success" of the pencil roll, I now want to make a simple drawstring bag to house all of the bits and pieces that go with our niece's pencil roll. But its gotta be pretty, right?!
I like this idea, matching fabric. I don't have anything nearly as cute in my pile, but I am sure I can come up with something.
With the bag plan sorted out, I thought I might like to add a little flower or something. Like this...
but I like this circle embellishment better.
Some more things that I found on my search for inspiration:
CUTE headband! And looks simple enough to make - here is a close up: (it has elastic at the back)
Now I am not sure that I am ready to venture into more sophisticated sewing like this yet ;-) - I best get through the drawstring bag first!
OOOH! Another idea that I could easily adapt to string across a bag! cut some rough triangle shapes and then just pin them on and stitch down! Leave the ends flapping and raw for interest. Hmm...what to do - circles or bunting? Decisions, decisions.....
If you start making headbands like this, and start selling them, LET ME KNOW!!!!!!!

ReplyDeleteThe circles on the headband are yoyos. Easy to make. Been making a flower headband myself.
