"Ballet flats are my go-to shoes but I hate wearing socks with them. These are a great compromise, especially because the lace is more breathable than a heavy cotton sock."

"I made a pillow similar to this one and it was not that hard just had to hold the fabric straight on line while sewing it down but it turned out good. I used the whole circle not folded but it still had that 3D effect. I also sewed a whole pillow not a cover but this is a good idea so you can change it out when you want something new. You can even use some stash pieces and save on fabric. I love when you can make your own decor to save on the high prices that they would cost."

"Do you like the looks of this cirrus duvet but think it looks to hard to do then you to take a look at this tutorial. It is not hard at all and they even use some jersey sheets. This is such a clever idea all you do is draw some lines and use a baste stitch and sew across the lines, pull thread to gather and sew to the back piece and that,s it done. This will look good on your own bed,a teens room or even a baby girls too. Nicely done."

"I agree with you I find pins all over the floors especially when I sweep and they are always ripping my pattern and some even tear. These look so easy to make and you can make them in leftover fabric.Have you made any yet and used them? Which one are you using rice or beans?"

"Who has some scrap fabric that they are dying to use up? Then why not make some of these easy and cute headbands to wear for yourself or for that special girl in the family. I like that you can add a bow or make without one and have two different looks. You just need small amount of fabric or use an old shirt and some elastic. That's it. Make some extras to keep on hand."

My name is Jodie Carleton and I live and craft in Australia. I am definitely hard-wired to make stuff and always seem to have ideas and projects bubbling away in my mind or in various stages of completion all over the house. I spend most of my time making toys. I also design and release sewing patterns. I write a blog which I love and I make lots of stuff. I have a ‘real’ job as a librarian and I wish constantly for more hours in the day to fit in everything I want to make.
