Lookie what she made: Rainbow Dash birthday dress

by

Kataryna from Sew Chibi and Chibi Designs created this special birthday dress for her young daughter.  She made it to look like Rainbow Dash, in response to her daughter’s request to have a dress that looks like her favorite My Little Pony.  She scallops on the back straps are the pony’s wings, and the rainbow bustle mimics the pony’s full tail.  You can tell from her photos of her daughter wearing the dress just how much she loves it.  Go to her blog post to read more and see more photos of her Rainbow Dash birthday dress.

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.
