DIY.. Project Overload

in Just for Fun on 17/04/14

Do you ever have a day when you plan to sew, but just can’t get to it? Well, I’ve been having a few of those days and now I’m at a standstill.

The last couple weeks were the busiest I’ve had in blogland. I probably bit off more than I could chew. I’m exhausted, but super happy with the results. The projects were perfectly scheduled out which was a first for me.. Now that I’ve completed the majority of it, I don’t know what to do next.

My Riley Blake Union Jack cosmetic case has been very popular, so I’m feeling rather pouch-happy these days.. I have too many ideas in my head and nothing is coming together.  What material should I work with first?

  • Black and white polka dot vinyl
  • Happy-Go-Lucky print from Bonnie and Camille for Moda fabrics
  • Mini metallic dot fabric from JoAnn fabrics

I plan to add some color pop into whatever I sew, so here is the fun stuff..

  • Lime green and/or turquoise zipper
  • Colorful thread
  • Light blue Velcro

If you have cruised around my blog and like what you see, is there something you would like to see more of? I’d love to hear from you – feel free to leave me a comment to let me know.  Happy Sewing!

    Hmmm. Some sort of small beach-y bag with multiple zips and a vinyl bottom to combat wet sand? Maybe I’m looking forward to summer too much; it’s already warm where you are. 🙂 Great projects for Riley Blake and Sew, Mama, Sew!!

    I really like all of your projects. So accessible while cute and useful at the same time.

    When Karin said a “wet bag,” I thought that was a great idea. Would be great for the beach, or also a small version my daughter could take to her swim class. Would def be an upgrade from the grocery bags we use now!

      Thanks Ann! A swim bag is in the mix! Tanner is taking swim classes [ He cries the whole time].. but I’ve been wanting to make a bag that holds all the swim stuff.
