Baby Boy Bowtie

Scrambling to find something quick for our Easter pics I turned to Pinterest and found a tutorial here for this cute bowtie. Using leftover fabric from a previous project. Super easy and cheap considering all you need is a 5x5 piece of fabric and was able to finish the whole thing during naptime. Here is the finished bowtie!

 

Can't wait to see my little man all dressed up for Easter pics :)

ETA: Look how precious he looks with his bowtie :)

 

 

Hot curling iron holder

Using pot holders found at the dollar store I sewed along the side and the top to make a pocket. Since my pot holder was kinda dull I also sewed a strip of ribbon to give it a little extra sprucing up.

 

So perfect to be able to put away when it's still hot and get off the counter.

 

Such a simple project after purchasing a quilting needle this took about 5 minutes. What do you think, will you make one?

Weekend Sewing fail... :(

Well most of my weekend pinterest projects failed :(  Its either my sewing capabilities (I'm very lazy at it) or my materials were not the best.

 

First off the mittens, I'm too embarassed to show a picture of my outcome, they were terrible lets just say that!

 

Secondly my shirt, not so great! My husband says I need to slow down and take my time, well whats the point of it being a simple easy project then if it takes me all day? Well needless to say I ruined the shirts with my inability to cut out nice shapes.

 

And lastly well the boot socks or whatever you wanna call them turned out pretty cute, I like the outcome.

After a much failed crafters weekend, I may attempt these projects again when I am willing to spend more time on them, if or when I do I will post updates! Thanks for looking!
