Poppies & Hummingbirds

I do not sew.

Or so I said.

This stay-at-home order has had me checking out Pinterest.

I discovered a video tutorial to make a cosmetic bag.

I decided to try it because it didn't look very difficult.

I had always told Rachel she can have the sewing machine!

I'll take care of the computer stuff.

I learned that it's sewing clothing that I dislike.

This project was actually fun!

Wouldn't this make a nice gift for someone?

You can make the bag and 4 matching cards.

All you need is two fat quarters of fabric

(one for the outside of the bag and one for the lining),

fusible interfacing, a zipper (and a sewing machine, of course),

and you could make a bag and 4 matching cards to give as a gift.

You can find all these supplies (except for the sewing machine! 😉) at the Farmhouse.

Rachel made cards using these fabrics.

She also used this fabric on some cards.

She used these dies on some of the cards.

They add a delicate edging to the cards.

Here are the insides of the cards.

I love how adding fabric/color to the inside just gives it a pop.

So, have you discovered and/or created anything new

during this shutdown?

We'd love to see what you've created!
