Tutorial: Tab topped cafe curtains

by

cafecurtainpanelsJacey from Jaceycraft shares a tutorial over at the Free Spirit Fabrics blog showing how you can make tab topped cafe curtains.  The short curtain panels are pieced from several coordinating cotton prints.  She used fabrics from the Astrid line by Erin McMorris.  Go to the Free Spirit Fabrics blog to get the tutorial. 

The link is difficult to find in the post.  The photo of the curtains (the one on their blog, not the thumbnail here) is actually the link and will open a PDF tutorial.

DIY Shirt Extender – Sewing Pattern

I like having a little extra coverage when I wear leggings, but I could never find a cute top that was just the right length. So I decided to make this Easy Sew Shirt Extender! This is so simple to sew and is an easy sewing project for beginners. It is easy to layer under your shirt or top of choice and I added some lace trim to mine for a fancier look. You can mix and match colors and fabrics to suit your needs!
