Patterns, Techniques, Articles, Blogs, and other resources to learn how to sew
Are you loving the fringe trend right now? Amaryllis from Ohoh Blog guest blogs at Sugar & Cloth with a tutorial showing how to make this luxurious throw pillow with thick fringe. This pillow has two colors of fringe plus large sequins (or beads, if you prefer) sewn into a chevron design across the front. Her tutorial includes how to make that fringe out of yarn. Love!

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.
