The jeans are finished. They turned out really nice. I hope they are what she wanted.

I have three doll dresses I have to get made for charity. I have a box of hats I need to embroidery for my nephew. I have a dress to alter and a baby outfit to embroidery. I think that is all the outside sewing I have for now. I bought myself some khaki material last month for a new skirt. I also have 2 craft shows coming up this fall and I need to get cracking sewing items for those.










At our sewing guild meeting Thursday we made these scissor fobs. We had a great time! (Right Linda?) The lady who showed us how to do this had brought samples and they were so pretty that I just had to make another out of green beads!










This is the one I made Friday. I have several more pair of scissors that just might need one of these! I could get addicted to beading. I really don't need another hobby though.

Sew Long for Now!

The jeans are very nice. But I really, really like the scissors fobs. Do you think you can do a tutorial and post it to your blog? I'd like to know how to make one too. :-)

I bet she'll love the jeans. The scissor fobs are great! I've made some of those, too and I like the way they feel on the scissors. They actually do help me keep track of my little scissors, too.

So what's that little cone thingy on the end? I think I could get into beading as well - that's why I haven't started - I don't want another hobby!

Cindi- The scissor fobs are beautiful, especially the green one! So, do they actually help you to not lose the scissors or are they purely decorative? If they truly work then I think I might need a fob or two...we can never find scissors when we need them :-)

LOL, Laura I haven't tried it long enough to know. I need to make ruler fobs. You know those small metal 6 inch rulers you use in sewing? I can never find my two!
