Tutorial: No-sew ugly Christmas sweater ornament

Aunt Peaches shows how you can make an Ugly Christmas Sweaters ornament for your tree, with  no sewing (or knitting) required!  They’re made from cut out sweater shapes (she gives a template) and made sparkly with glitter and sequins.  The ornament hanger is a clothes hanger, of course.  This would be a fun activity to do with the kids! Because when they go overboard with the sequins and the glitter, well… that’s exactly the look you’re going for.

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.
