November 30, 2018 by Anne Weaver

Tips and hacks for cleaning your ironWhile the iron in my laundry room gets zero use, the one in my sewing room gets used almost every day.  All that use can create build-up and gunk on the bottom!  There are lots of ways you can clean an iron, some of them using specially made products you can buy and others using household items as kind of a home remedy for a gunky iron.  So Sew Easy gives the run down on many of these “home remedy” iron cleaning methods.  If you’re having trouble getting your iron cleaned, give it a read and see if any of them help.

15 Dog Poop Bag Carriers You Can Sew For Your Dog

If you’re a dog owner, then you know the inevitable truth — what goes in, must come out. And in my house, that truth has a name: Aloo, our lovable, curly-coated Labradoodle who has made it his mission to poop like a champion. Seriously, this dog is a pooping machine.

In our area, not picking up after your dog isn’t just frowned upon — it’s illegal. So, being a responsible (and poop-weary) pet parent, I quickly realized we needed a poop bag holder that was not only practical but also cute and handmade. That’s when I went down the rabbit hole (pun intended?) of DIY dog poop bag holders — and now I’m sharing my favorite 15 free sewing patterns and tutorials with you!

Whether you’re after something sleek and minimalist or a treat-pocket combo pouch for walkies, this list has something for every type of sewist and pup. Bonus: most of these projects are total scrap busters too!

So, whether your furry friend is a casual stroller or a serial pooper like my dear Aloo, having a poop bag holder that’s handy, stylish, and easy to refill is a total game changer. You can clip them to a leash, toss one in your car, or make a few to keep near every exit — trust me, you’ll thank yourself later.

And hey, why settle for boring store-bought holders when you can sew your own in under an hour? Let me know which one you’re going to try — and give your four-legged pal a belly rub from me and Aloo!
