Sewing tutorial: Patchwork and pom pom pillowThis patchwork pillow will brighten any spot in your home!  Natalie from Sew Hungry Hippie has a tutorial showing how to make one.  I’m loving the bright colors combined with the pom pom trim!  The patchwork design is made from squares, an easy project for someone wanting to give patchwork a go.  Her tutorial includes an option for making a pillow insert (pillow form) or just stuffing the pillow directly.

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.
