The Saturday Social - Laptop Bag


Hope you are all having a fun weekend. Today's Saturday Social (our favourite sewing tutorial from the world wide web) comes from The Mother Huddle. This custom fit laptop bag tutorial is full to the brim of clear, beautiful photos. I am choosing my co-ordinating fabrics for this tutorial right now. Enjoy!

Saturday Social - The Frog Chorus...

Bom, Bom, Bom, Byeee-yeee-i (as Paul McCarthy might say/sing)


This week's Saturday social is a fun and fast project from The Purl Bee. I love these beany frogs and they are just the thing for using up those out of date lentils that had been at the back of the cupboard since 1994 (or is it just me that applies to?). Great instructions for these little guys and a printable template - what could be easier?


So cute!

Here is one I made from this tutorial...




Have a great weekend :)

Saturday Social - Pretty Storage

Today's Saturday Social Sewing Project is from Obsessively Stitching. These wonderful fabric storage boxes could be the answer to all your fabric stash storage problems - You are after all using some of your stash to make them, and then you can tidy the rest of your stash away in them - result! The tutorial comes in two easy to follow parts, part 1 is here and part 2 here. Happy sewing.

The Saturday Social - Fabric Notebook Covers


Today's Saturday Social tutorial from "My Patchwork" is all about fabric notebook covers. Now, some girls have a thing for shoes, others crave diamonds and jewels. Me, my weakness is notebooks, I must have about a million on the go at the moment. So I am planning to make a few of these covers to keep my notebooks fun and funky. This tutorial is full of photos (my favourite way to learn). I hope you have fun making this. Check out My Patchwork's blog for loads more lovely tutorials.
