Tutorial and pattern: Personalized sleep mask

Tutorial and pattern: Personalized sleep maskI recently made personalized sleep masks for my Girl Scout troop to wear at a campout.  I wanted the girls to have a way to keep stray lights out of their eyes so they could get to sleep.  The sleep masks also ended up being cute souvenirs of our weekend camping adventure.  The sleep masks were quick to sew and I’m sharing a tutorial and free pattern over at Orange Bettie.   I used bright colors and added their names and a sassy sleep message to each one using heat transfer vinyl.

Sewing Pattern – DIY Beach Towel Bag

If you are like me you want an easy way to carry your towel and a few items to the beach but don’t want a bag just to hold those things.

So I came up with the idea to make a beach towel bag. This way it is a bag that can hold a few items but also function as your towel. I love it! I share with you how you can make your own beach towel bag.

This is an easy sewing project that is perfect for summer! I even made a few for my kids so they each have their own. Start sewing this fun bag today.
