December 2, 2015 by Anne Weaver

Now that ugly Christmas sweater parties are a thing, it can be hard to find an actual Ugly Christmas Sweaters. No worries, you can DIY a plain sweater into ugly Christmas sweater awesomeness. Alexa from The Swell Designer shares a tutorial at I Love To Create showing how to make a cat lady ugly Christmas sweater (I’m in love!) with no sewing at all. It’s covered in mittens, with painted cats peeking out. Make your sweater interactive by filling the mittens with candy canes!

Sewing Pattern – DIY Beach Towel Bag

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.
