Tutorial: No-sew knotted animal blanket

Jess from The Sewing Rabbit shares a cool variation of the no-sew knotted blanket.  Rather than the knots going around the outer edge of the fleece blanket, she uses the knots to insert an animal shape into the middle of the blanket. She made one with a bunny, which was perfect for Easter, but this will work with any simple shape. I know my daughter would live to get a blanket with a kitty face!

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.
