"Thanks so much for a great article! I have been wanting to try out embroidery but can't master sewing in straight lines. I never thought to try marking out lines using a pencil."

"Isn't this a wonderful way to use vintage hankies and keep the practicality as well as beauty! With so many estate sales you could easily start collecting so,e of the prettier ones, or use ones you already have from your own family, which would then make the quilt a nice heirloom too! For added embellishment, you could stitch around the edges too. Lovely and sweet project, thanks for sharing!"

"I made a similar bag years ago and used oil cloth so the outside wa easy to keep clean as I used it to tote children's learning games that I made from school to school. I made straps out of the same fabric and measured from my shoulder to,where I wanted the bag to hang so I got a custom fit! And I place the straps on the bag where it felt the best. Mine was made for large objects and at the time I did a fold over top."

Joy Kelley Hola! My name is Joy and I blog over at www.howjoyful.com. I am a Chilean designer that moved from my home country to the California mountains two years ago. I love sewing, crafting, upcycling, drafting and creating new things all the time. My blog reflects that and all the things I love to share.

I created my blog as a way to document the things I was making but along the way I realized how much I love to share my inspiration with others. Now, my main goal is to inspire others to try new techniques and create something new.

This year my husband and I became homeowners and are expecting our first baby. So on top of the normal projects, I have a lot of remodeling and baby projects and tutorials ahead of me! If you'd like to take a look come visit my blog, I always have projects and tutorials to share.
