Tutorial: Color blocked bow skirtLiz from Simple Simon & Co.  shows the cutest color blocked bow skirt she made for her daughter.  She’s sewn this design up many times since she originally published the tutorial.  The neon and white you see here is allll kinds of fabulous, but so is the melon-y one that she shows in the original tutorial.  Go to Simple Simon & Co. to see more of the neon version and to link to her tutorial.  (Or, if you’re already totally in love with this design, you could just go straight to the tutorial here.)

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.
