Patterns, Techniques, Articles, Blogs, and other resources to learn how to sew
Dawn from Designed by Dawn Nicole shares a tutorial on her blog showing how to make her Handkerchief Hem Bandana Skirt for sweet little girls. The skirt is made from two bandanas, and the waistband from a length of wide elastic. It’s quick to sew (no hemming!) and oh, so cute. Get the tute.

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.
This tutorial will surely be liked by many mothers out there. They love to sew clothing for their little girls and this skirt will be perfect. The materials used here are very easy to find.
