Patterns, Techniques, Articles, Blogs, and other resources to learn how to sew
One of my readers, Lory turned me on to this accessories pattern- KwikSew 3526. It features an adorable purse, wristlet and a head band. Having just cut bangs for the first time in my life, I am loving the hair accessories! Definitely see one of these bands in my immediate future! Kwik Sew also has a ton of other patterns that are really easy, so super for beginners. I LOVE Pattern 3659– the Tunic is darling!
You can find Kwik Sew patterns online at SewingPatterns.com
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.
