Tracy from Mad Quilter shows how you can create an 8-gored skirt from a pattern you draft yourself. She shows the one she made for her daughter, but there’s no reason why you can’t make an adult-sized one as well. Go to the tutorial.

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.
