Patterns, Techniques, Articles, Blogs, and other resources to learn how to sew
Katie from Bite Sized Biggie shows how you can make any pair of slippers have a non-slip sole. It’s easy and it doesn’t require any sewing at all! You can do this for slippers (or socks) you purchase, but it’s also a nice way to finish off a pair of handmade slippers or slipper boot that you sew.

Easy DIY No-Slip Slippers, by Bite Sized Biggie

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.
