<h2>
1 – Cut out pieces</h2>
<a href="http://66.147.244.118/~fleecefu/wp-content/uploads/2012/04/saturday-morning-scarf-_1.jpg"><img alt="" class="alignleft size-full wp-image-1347" src="http://66.147.244.118/~fleecefu/wp-content/uploads/2012/04/saturday-morning-scarf-_1.jpg" height="140" title="saturday morning scarf _1 fleece fun free tutorial and pattern" width="250" /></a>Taking your rotary cutter and mat cut the following strips :<br />
From the fleece cut 3 strips that are 3 inches wide (and 60 inches long)<br />
From the jersey knit cut 6 strips that are 2.5 inches wide ( and 60 inches long)<br />
Tip: don’t have a large cutting mat? Just use a plastic office chair mat – it’s soft plastic so it won’t hurt your blade, and it can take abuse.<br />
<br />
<h2>
2 – Prep the knit pieces and lettuce edging (optional)</h2>
<br />
<a href="http://66.147.244.118/~fleecefu/wp-content/uploads/2012/04/saturday-morning-scarf-_2.png"><img alt="" class="alignleft size-full wp-image-1348" src="http://66.147.244.118/~fleecefu/wp-content/uploads/2012/04/saturday-morning-scarf-_2.png" height="476" title="saturday morning scarf _2 fleece fun free pattern and tutorial" width="447" /></a>Sew three of the knit strips together - place wrong side to right sides (the the pieces of fabric are overlapping about .5 inches) and then sew together with a straight stitch, Repeat with the other three strips.<br />
While this step is optional, this edging really adds to the body and “waviness” of the scarf. You can use a serger to make the edging or…..<br />
if you are like me and don’t own a serger you can make “fake lettuce edging”.<br />
To make fake lettuce edging, take one of your knit strips, begin to fold over edge (about and 1/8 to 1/4 of and inch) and sew along the edge using a wide zig zag stitch, that is close together (not quite a satin stitch, but tighter than the normal setting on you machine).<br />
Sew, gently stretching the cloth before and after the sewing foot all the way down the edge.<br />
Note: Practice this technique on some scraps to get it down before you try it on your cloth. Heavier knits tend to do this better than very light knits. Also it doesn’t have to be perfectly even – it won’t be noticeable on the scarf!<br />
<h2>
3 – The fleece Section</h2>
<br />
<a href="http://66.147.244.118/~fleecefu/wp-content/uploads/2012/04/saturday-morning-scarf-_3.jpg"><img alt="" class="alignleft size-full wp-image-1349" src="http://66.147.244.118/~fleecefu/wp-content/uploads/2012/04/saturday-morning-scarf-_3.jpg" height="242" title="saturday morning scarf _3 fleece fun free tutorial and pattern" width="433" /></a>Be sure to cut off the about 2 inches off the ends of the fleece strips.<br />
Then, sew the fleece pieces end to end using the same technique we did with the knit - place wrong side to right sides (the the pieces of fabric are overlapping about .5 inches) and then sew together with a straight stitch.<br />
<br />
<h2>
4 – Begin to bring it all together</h2>
<br />
<a href="http://66.147.244.118/~fleecefu/wp-content/uploads/2012/04/saturday-morning-scarf-_4.png"><img alt="" class="alignleft size-full wp-image-1350" src="http://66.147.244.118/~fleecefu/wp-content/uploads/2012/04/saturday-morning-scarf-_4.png" height="619" title="saturday morning scarf _4 fleece fun free tutorial and pattern" width="372" /></a>starting at one end of the scarf pin the knit on top of the fleece (wrong side to right side so the fabric is stacked and overlaps .5 inches. Pin all the way down and curve around the bottom (see picture)<br />
Sew on using a straight stitch. Then starting at other side, repeat, making sure you have both ends with knit.<br />
<br />
<h2>
5- Add the scrunch</h2>
<br />
<a href="http://66.147.244.118/~fleecefu/wp-content/uploads/2012/04/saturday-morning-scarf-_5.png"><img alt="" class="alignleft size-full wp-image-1351" src="http://66.147.244.118/~fleecefu/wp-content/uploads/2012/04/saturday-morning-scarf-_5.png" height="429" title="saturday morning scarf _5 fleece fun free tutorial and pattern" width="327" /></a>Using a basting stitch, ( a long stitch that isn’t finished on the ends) sew down one side the scarf to gather (do this in three sections, using the overlap seams of the fleece as a natural break, I recommend doing this in three sections as the scarf is long and there is a lot of gathering to do. ). Do the same on the other side<br />
Gather the scarf to the “scrunchiness” you want on both sides.<br />
Tip: This is a good thing to do while watching a movie. May I recommend “To Catch a Thief” with Carry Grant and Grace Kelley? =)<br />
<br />
<h2>
6 – Set the scrunch</h2>
<br />
<div>
<a href="http://66.147.244.118/~fleecefu/wp-content/uploads/2012/04/saturday-morning-scarf-_6.jpg"><img alt="" class="alignleft size-full wp-image-1352" src="http://66.147.244.118/~fleecefu/wp-content/uploads/2012/04/saturday-morning-scarf-_6.jpg" height="208" title="saturday morning scarf _6 fleece fun free pattern and tutorial" width="370" /></a></div>
Now that you have your scarf gathered just the way you want it – it’s time to make sure it stays that way. Using a medium width, but slightly shorter zig sag stitch, over your basting stitch all the way down the scarf. Trim your thread and you are finished!</div>

This is what I created for her birthday. I usually try to make a dress or something for her to wear to match her theme. She picked the fabric this year and I think it turned out cute. <br />

Minions LOVE bananas, So I found some banana flavored taffy and yellow gumballs for their goody bag. Of course they had to have a real banana and a "Fart Blaster" which was a mini squirt gun.<br />

I made some coffee filter flowers for my friends baby sprinkle as decoration. They turned out so pretty that people thought they were real and tried to smell them :)</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I watched LOTS of tutorials on how to make these, and I kind of combined them together to make them simple. It takes 8-10 filters to make one flower. I used 8 in mine.</div>
<ul>
<li><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
The supplies needed are of course plain white coffee filteres. I used the 8-10 cup ones, and bought them from the dollar store.</div>
</li>
<li><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
regular food color</div>
</li>
<li><div style="text-align: left;">
white vinegar</div>
</li>
<li><div style="text-align: left;">
some type of large bowl or those throw away tin containers.</div>
</li>
<li><div style="text-align: left;">
wax paper (so the food color doesn't destroy your counter top).</div>
</li>
<li><div style="text-align: left;">
paper towels (over the wax paper to soak up water).</div>
</li>
<li><div style="text-align: left;">
And/or a cookie cooling rack</div>
</li>
<li><div style="text-align: left;">
Some of the tutorials said to use wood skewers, but I couldn't find any with points so I used bamboo shish kabob skewrs from walmart. I got 100 for less than $1.00. </div>
</li>
<li><div style="text-align: left;">
Floral wire. Bought from Hobby Lobby in the silk flower section.</div>
</li>
<li><div style="text-align: left;">
Floral Tape</div>
</li>
<li><div style="text-align: left;">
Scisors</div>
</li>
<li><div style="text-align: left;">
And I used my Stampin' Up! poker and pad to make the holes to insert the skewer and floral wire.</div>
</li>
<li><div style="text-align: left;">
Optional: Hot glue gun. </div>

I forgot to take pictures of the dying of the filters. I'll take some and post them soon!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Fill your bowl with water and add food color til desired color. Add a cap full of the vinegar to the water. It helps the dying process move a long faster. Just remember that the coffee filters will be lighter than the color in the bowl, however they will be slightly darker when they finish drying. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Seperate the filters before you put them into the water. You can put several filters in the bowl at a time, I do 8-12. The ones in the middle may be a little lighter so just put them back in and leave them a little longer. I leave mine in for about 10-15 minutes, it just depends on how dark you want them.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I made pink, peach, lavander, and yellow</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Fold them into quarters and with your scisors, scallop your edges. I cut about 4 at a time.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

</ul>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Stack 8-10 of your filters on top of each other in the desired color combination. I used mostly yellow in the center, so that went on top.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

I used my Stampin Up! paper piercing tool and made 3 holes in the center</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
(where you folded them you will see the center) </div>

My daughters "new" bed. She had a full size bed (made from her 4 in 1 crib) prior to this, but it took up too much room and she didn't really have anyplace to play. My husbands mom had this in her basement with a brand new mattress on it so she gave it to us! I want to make it into a trundle bed eventually for when my parents come visit from Texas. </div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
It was an ugly 70/80's brown, so I went to Menards and bought the same limegreen spray paint as what I painted the chandelier (see post). I think it turned out super cute! And my daughter loves it, which is all that counts. The great part is when we outgrow the green color spray paint is cheap enough to do another color :) I think it only took 3 cans.</div>

I've been wanting to do this since I saw it on Pintrest last year :)</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I've had the candle sticks for 12 years but dont use them (ok well here's the thing, these were a gift to my husband years ago from an ex...and I dont like them, nor do they go with anything we have)</div>
<div style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
So why not make something cute out of them?</div>
<div style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I went to the Salvation Army and got 2 plates ($.98 ea) When I got home I cleaned them really good.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I also cleaned up the candle stick (it was pretty dusty)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
They had a little poker sticking up in the center that I unscrewed to make it flat</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I used E6000 glue to glue the candlestick to the plate. The easy thing about this project was that the plates were clear so I could easily center the plate when gluing them together. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I then turned it over to dry (the candle stick was very heavy) and thought gravity might help it along. This glue dries pretty fast.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjxTAkiCBk2bi5ZIHAoA8b-5Wdm4zRKR9RTrzuecpnPsxwSrxFELCbuVbzXTuhS-mtUQzOwi4427YArC6gg6LUWI5oDtY_vT3LS0pfULgOBDbVHs9tps17P3gPP8ggx5BHFuq1sb859BrzW/s1600/homemade+treat+stand+(6).JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjxTAkiCBk2bi5ZIHAoA8b-5Wdm4zRKR9RTrzuecpnPsxwSrxFELCbuVbzXTuhS-mtUQzOwi4427YArC6gg6LUWI5oDtY_vT3LS0pfULgOBDbVHs9tps17P3gPP8ggx5BHFuq1sb859BrzW/s320/homemade+treat+stand+(6).JPG" width="240" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I first sprayed the bottom of the stand. I put 3 light coats on it, so it wouldn't run.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiN_v3SJiitH1GzPbKS5itMNrVjSfHK391rNkjA0PrgPh3GOaj6dsORItP4Vpmz1A0J9tMXTI46L_oIsMeV-k7eQ3GKKJAPdtti49yZjxaNT-TLDkpx7uFOiEEt5MRZisFgbCmRCvHIu3ve/s1600/homemade+treat+stand+(8).JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiN_v3SJiitH1GzPbKS5itMNrVjSfHK391rNkjA0PrgPh3GOaj6dsORItP4Vpmz1A0J9tMXTI46L_oIsMeV-k7eQ3GKKJAPdtti49yZjxaNT-TLDkpx7uFOiEEt5MRZisFgbCmRCvHIu3ve/s320/homemade+treat+stand+(8).JPG" width="240" /></a></div>

<div align="center">
Then I flipped it over and put 3 light coats on the top</div>

I'm SOOOO excited about this project! It cost me all of $3.00! WOOT!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I was talking to a lady at church and I told her I was going to go to the Re-Store and buy a chandelier so I can spray paint it for my daughters room. She said that her neighbor gave her one and she didn't want or need it and I could have it (for FREE!)....Here it is below. I'm sure it was lovely when it was new, But the paint and crystals were very dull and dirty. I cleaned the crystals in vinegar and warm water and left them on a towel to dry. I had my friend Kelly come over and help (ok so she really did the work) and paint it since she had been on a roll painting her brass fixtures in her house, I figured she was a pro :)</div>

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">First I started by picking out my fabric. I happened to find these two coordinating cotton fabrics at JoAnns in the clearence section. I bought 1/2 yard of each and only paid $5! I had some extra blanket fleece (cream color) but not quite enough so my cousin donated some of hers (Thanks MJ!) and I bought 1 yard of the pretty blue Minky and it happened to be on sale for $10/yd instead of the usual $15 (plus the lady at check out used her 15% off coupon instead of my 10%) so the minky only cost me $9 with tax! So this came out pretty inexpensive for me! Yeah!</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">The first thing I did was cut my cotton fabric (or you can use flannel) into 6" squares. If you have more than 1 fabric, lay them out into the desired pattern on the table.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Then I cut my Fleece into 5" squares</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">And third I cut my Minky into 6" squares</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">This picture is my cotton layed out how I wanted it to look as the finished product. I tried lying my striped fabric all the same way but didn't like the look, so I just altered my pattern</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh3jJldNdOBxiCYovOvGgBK-8hUaa0UmpWsKYBubNKMANJBEFbn30nvGG2qmR_lexq3r1bqJfsUGo8OBnpA0YPzOk7DzvGgwXK2sIwXS8ELn7_kMrFylKJi7z8-iqfDToX_oIueIRV1InWj/s1600/Rag+Quilt+6in+squares+(1).JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh3jJldNdOBxiCYovOvGgBK-8hUaa0UmpWsKYBubNKMANJBEFbn30nvGG2qmR_lexq3r1bqJfsUGo8OBnpA0YPzOk7DzvGgwXK2sIwXS8ELn7_kMrFylKJi7z8-iqfDToX_oIueIRV1InWj/s320/Rag+Quilt+6in+squares+(1).JPG" width="239" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Flip them over and start sewing each square in an "X" shape (you can do this by making a long chain) Then lay it back out in your desited pattern cotton side up</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Then sew 1 row together at a time using 1/2" seams with your seams facing out.

I bought a foam wreath at the dollar store and it was smaller than the original one I had and so i had some left over flowers. I went back to the dollar store and they had some adorable baskets and square block foam bricks that inside perfectly so i decided to make a cute centerpiece for my dining room table.<br /></div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgWAkKkufnsKd4GlRg0ZRShxULjHl7OV200XlNDQkOtFwerGpktISgK-VzxjCuawva0cPYICd0hwbgLo5Ie2ewNpkunQ92XHhfy7VKn34shIM1LQEzKCL-yzx7okyiWyPBWXct0Lkp_VOQZ/s1600/Cricut+Flowers+%25287%2529.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; width: 320px; height: 240px; text-align: center; display: block; cursor: pointer;" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5722081137964227042" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjbQAkO1yvMPdaYTdvJjCjpp8AduIi1g_i1LR9VqeGZZoH-xhwyNlhVb_K572cQICTXdT6aoUiU2EXRg0wR7siNS6yMR-WRKrynsnRhognpVx7dxP5edraZtTBl2Two1-JRxuCfzSXswtQp/s320/Cricut+Flowers+%25288%2529.JPG" /><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; width: 240px; height: 320px; text-align: center; display: block; cursor: pointer;" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5722081132449348514" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgWAkKkufnsKd4GlRg0ZRShxULjHl7OV200XlNDQkOtFwerGpktISgK-VzxjCuawva0cPYICd0hwbgLo5Ie2ewNpkunQ92XHhfy7VKn34shIM1LQEzKCL-yzx7okyiWyPBWXct0Lkp_VOQZ/s320/Cricut+Flowers+%25287%2529.JPG" /></a><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjHMfu20l_6M2zhbYJQ6D5fNv6qKwxBurER_6aY1l4WN36aYyiaMJU2hkwYwhcfhJi3fvIsvncyauUBb8GZvsMXy2D7S7OB_Fk0nnzsHQn_z1qQOvm54I5yXwAYew5WM6XkLHHbJ5YALtkY/s1600/Cricut+Flowers+%25285%2529.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; width: 240px; height: 320px; text-align: center; display: block; cursor: pointer;" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5722081123229131698" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjHMfu20l_6M2zhbYJQ6D5fNv6qKwxBurER_6aY1l4WN36aYyiaMJU2hkwYwhcfhJi3fvIsvncyauUBb8GZvsMXy2D7S7OB_Fk0nnzsHQn_z1qQOvm54I5yXwAYew5WM6XkLHHbJ5YALtkY/s320/Cricut+Flowers+%25285%2529.JPG" /></a><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgTADaRHXMTt2wphS3APjeJ7d19ObWB-AX2CjECfeEQpBy3SFrXMd8dWIdBXX1vFE1t2zuQseBeSs6r-nR-RGjThnXXY9xsXtbAtBYsjK-Z2gzPJ1f1q_tMJzBMJwDtplcq2SuGm7eKl-0-/s1600/Cricut+Flowers+%25284%2529.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; width: 320px; height: 240px; text-align: center; display: block; cursor: pointer;" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5722081115145857106" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgTADaRHXMTt2wphS3APjeJ7d19ObWB-AX2CjECfeEQpBy3SFrXMd8dWIdBXX1vFE1t2zuQseBeSs6r-nR-RGjThnXXY9xsXtbAtBYsjK-Z2gzPJ1f1q_tMJzBMJwDtplcq2SuGm7eKl-0-/s320/Cricut+Flowers+%25284%2529.JPG" /></a><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiSJPLMwcU61X7n_V6ETJ5FeWLmpD855s3fwHld17qSS92scopPJ6G2Nv3LUKsZU83bnL5MiC0Tx3X_Ey1hUZ7wHGLNnNXu929u77lrXlc_PMHGF9McyFE564-Qr0prXJVxBrStTLtH0gXa/s1600/Cricut+Flowers+%25282%2529.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; width: 320px; height: 240px; text-align: center; display: block; cursor: pointer;" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5722081106473612258" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiSJPLMwcU61X7n_V6ETJ5FeWLmpD855s3fwHld17qSS92scopPJ6G2Nv3LUKsZU83bnL5MiC0Tx3X_Ey1hUZ7wHGLNnNXu929u77lrXlc_PMHGF9McyFE564-Qr0prXJVxBrStTLtH0gXa/s320/Cricut+Flowers+%25282%2529.JPG" /></a><br /><div></div></div></div></div>OAK Creationshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05351799071617012458noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5895378622549772791.post-63159355351665410882012-03-11T21:41:00.003-04:002012-03-11T21:47:26.626-04:00The Sock Sack<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhtoPXuk8n269PdqAbyhTFIFT7hbQP1dyr3QoXa_vtWy6EIzbT0KrwZhE8Wi8QtKyWapfVQfvoLXMq9Eupliq7-DjaZxXeXhka2j-uT58L6GnSQoavnRd2nmFsS5CitpeJGU75JnPVB11lD/s1600/Sock+Sack.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; width: 239px; height: 320px; text-align: center; display: block; cursor: pointer;" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5718819849968917778" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhtoPXuk8n269PdqAbyhTFIFT7hbQP1dyr3QoXa_vtWy6EIzbT0KrwZhE8Wi8QtKyWapfVQfvoLXMq9Eupliq7-DjaZxXeXhka2j-uT58L6GnSQoavnRd2nmFsS5CitpeJGU75JnPVB11lD/s320/Sock+Sack.JPG" /></a>I call this The Sock Sack.

I repourposed a hanger from something I bought to hang it with. I hung mine on the door for now, but I plan on getting a hook and putting it on the wall above the laundry basket.<br /><div></div>OAK Creationshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05351799071617012458noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5895378622549772791.post-74742995027347880702012-02-26T18:08:00.029-05:002012-02-26T21:43:26.490-05:00Mens Shirt Jumper<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhy_ivT-SF6qdopQRe8opD5L2Y5wgDS3xz-BKUDKtsiV0bVDuyMHs1YopPY9p_0U3jl7mZSDt788MXy4m-PB4RVcuLMhUw4FWlreTEyC-MBENb1XVTH-KxcdcTEMthuP40W8KtoVGx5Up_7/s1600/misc+005.jpg"></a><div align="center"><div><div><div><div>I found this adorable post on <a href="http://www.madebylex.com/2009/09/the-shirt-jumper-mens-shirt-to-girls-dress-refashion-tutorial.html">Lex Designs</a>.

Figure out how long you want the dress. Measure from the bottom of the shirt up and cut it where you need it.Trim the bottom hem so it is straight.(Some shirts, like mine did here, had that rounded trim but I wanted it straight.)<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiWiENvYZ_cmlPQYseRHTz-NmAdwER1BDG2WJ3WxFoOybiZnmvra4aWy6ZlnnNgdfSdqCPdGE_tzQNa18N_5f2IHG6ar-P8waH3CAa0Wmc_7TyJzoIWm93oFoDhNIJueX3yCYR33AMLnRI/s1600-h/misc+005.jpg"></a><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgKAwdLz2jUDhUGSm6KL_OonVpf_5XB3-729tIbaSzgRHLITDJ1bnJNfSJVkv8Q2hf1Aw2VI4msav4ECJ61lIlotBk9fKo2BGpd8MEmz-LJBd0VKdYQOiwN_nZ2tT0frnSpJkYFTPzPVLtH/s1600/misc+009.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; width: 320px; height: 213px; text-align: center; display: block; cursor: pointer;" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5713604032202276290" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgKAwdLz2jUDhUGSm6KL_OonVpf_5XB3-729tIbaSzgRHLITDJ1bnJNfSJVkv8Q2hf1Aw2VI4msav4ECJ61lIlotBk9fKo2BGpd8MEmz-LJBd0VKdYQOiwN_nZ2tT0frnSpJkYFTPzPVLtH/s320/misc+009.jpg" /></a>Now for pockets. These are optional. Another thing you could do is if the shirts have preexisting pockets, you could cut those out and use those.I cut out two pockets and two strips for hemtape.The first thing i do is get a lining for the pockets. You could use the same material, I just love contrasting pocket lining.

I cut 5 in. strips and folded them accordian style into 5 in. squares and cut them witht my Bigz Square Scallop Die in my Big Shot. It was fast and easy! I then put them on a diagonal and sewed them with a zigzag stich. Thats it! I even went to Salvation Army and found a pretty tie dye shirt and made one for my daughter, she loves it!OAK Creationshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05351799071617012458noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5895378622549772791.post-78644615679441007132011-09-20T11:26:00.004-04:002011-09-20T11:36:33.136-04:00Cool FREE products!So I joined this website called <a href="http://www.vocalpoint.com/index.html">Vocalpoint</a>.

I used the Build A Bear Workshop paper. I thought it was very summery (is that a word? lol) and cute!<br /><br />Durring this class we made 10 cards (and had paper left over), however there are templates out there where you can make 16 cards. I did a search on Google and Split Coast Stampers for "One Sheet Wonder Templates".<br /><br />If I can ever figure out how to add a PDF link, i'll post them here.
