Free pattern: Easy 15-minute feece cat ear hat

January 15, 2017 by Anne Weaver

I had been wanting to make a cat ear hat for a while now, because I’m a crazy cat lady and think everything is better with cat ears. But I kept putting it off because my “want to make” list is too long for the time I have to sew. But when I started seeing people make pink kitty ear hats for the Pussyhat Project, I realized I should pull my cat ear hat to the top of the list. I worked up a pattern that’s quick to sew from fleece. I’m sharing it over at Orange Bettie. It takes just 15 minutes, including the time it takes to cut out the pieces. You can make one as a feminist statement, or just because cat ears are fun.

Easy Cosmetics Bag Sewing Pattern

The bag is simple, uses very little fabric (about 2/3rds of a fat quarter), has no fussy inside pockets (although you can add your own if you like), and takes me well less than 30 minutes to print the pattern, cut out and sew. But quick and simple doesn’t mean it’s not awesome!

It’s the sort of bag that is versatile enough to be used for lots of applications, not just cosmetics and toiletries. Keep all your pens and pencils in order, use it for a small first aid kit for the car, keep it in your desk at work for a few headache pills and other personal supplies.

Make some for yourself, for gifts or to sell.
