stuffies and fleece
i am currently on holiday from my freelance design work until after the new year and i am loving the time i now have to putter around. the other day, i made a travel neck pillow from this tutorial over on the cottage home. do i travel much? not as much as i would like. do i need a neck pillow? no, not really. but it was so cute, i just had to space out for a few hours and put together this easy peasy pattern. plus, i think i learned a trick for life to avoid lumpy bumpy stuffie stuffing. want to know what it is???
add a layer of fusible fleece to the back of your outer fabric before you sew parts together and stuff. this tutorial didn't call for fleece fusible, just regular, but it was all i had in the house. it gave my piece such a smooth finished look, i am hooked!
what online tutorials have you been hooked on? i have 2 more weeks of this freedom and am all ears for more ways to spend my time.

ReplyDeleteAlso for me I wanna make an ear bud pouch I saw on this blog http://erinerickson.com/. But since I'm far from my machine it won't be happening anytime soon! Have fun whatever you make!
