Fabric Vessels

These are additional fabric vessel organizers I sewed following the same tutorial from the Ozachan channel here. (She demonstrates another technique here.) I used her specific dimensions and my finished baskets measure 3"W x 4"H. Base approx. 2.5" square.

I purchased my fabrics from kimonomomo on Etsy. These are Japanese Cotton Dobby fabrics that have a subtle texture similar to barkcloth.

All are reversible too!

 

Fabric Vessel / Reversible Organizer

This is a fabric vessel/organizer I sewed using a jelly roll collection called the Waterlilly Pond Collection from the Tinyspool & Co Store for the exterior and the interior was just a fabric from my stash of fat quarters. The exterior pieces were cut into 2.5" squares and then layered by overlapping pieces onto my fusible stabilizer.

I used a medium weight fusible stabilizer on both exterior and lining. I did some sashiko stitching on both pieces of fabric. I then assembled my basket by following the tutorial here on the Ozachan channel. I altered my fabric dimensions slightly. My basket measures 4"W x 5"H. Base approx. size 3" square.

 Also Reversible!

Abstract Mini Notebooks

I bound these mini notebooks with a 3-hole pamphlet stitch using assorted papers. 

The covers were made using a manilla folder base. I arranged a variety of digital designs onto a blank 8.5 x 11 page in adobe photoshop and printed these onto laser inkjet matte clear full sheet labels. I then adhered these full sheet labels onto the manilla folder base and cut my covers to a variety of sizes. The notebooks range in sizes 2", 2.5" and 3" square.

 

The Abstract, Boho, and Bauhaus digital designs I purchased from DesignByAhn and 

BloomCraftStudio on Etsy.

I enjoyed making these mini abstract notebooks and made a ton of them!

The Lake Isle of Innisfree

By WILLIAM BUTLER YEATS

I will arise and go now, and go to Innisfree,

And a small cabin build there, of clay and wattles made;

Nine bean-rows will I have there, a hive for the honey-bee,

And live alone in the bee-loud glade.

And I shall have some peace there, for peace comes dropping slow,

Dropping from the veils of the morning to where the cricket sings;

There midnight’s all a glimmer, and noon a purple glow,

And evening full of the linnet’s wings.

I will arise and go now, for always night and day

I hear lake water lapping with low sounds by the shore;

While I stand on the roadway, or on the pavements grey,

I hear it in the deep heart’s core.

Mini Snap Pouch with Interior Zip Pocket

I sewed this mini pouch using Zen Chic Fabric (Frisky Collection) by Moda. Has two interior pockets, one which has a handy zipper compartment. It has a snap for the outer closure. 

Closed, it's approximately 4.25"W x 4"H. Handy size also holds business cards and credit cards.

Easy to follow tutorial over at 
"Das Haus mit dem Rosensofa"

 

Zine Obsessed!!

I've been making zines! I've never made any before, but I was inspired by Katie Gebely and her colorful, abstract zines over at Collage, Zines & Art Journals. 

Visit her channel for tutorials, inspiration and an explanation on "What is a Zine & How to Make One."

If you're interested in more info, check out Zines on Wikipedia here.

I made the majority of mine using 8.5 x 11 inch Neenah Bright White Premium cardstock paper as the base. Folded, creates an 8 page booklet & measures 3"W x 4.5"H.

I created them using text, images and a variety of art pens by POSCA, Artify and Artistro. I used bold jumbo acrylic markers, metallics, watercolor brush tip pens and dual tip alcohol markers. Even made a few minis!

It's a fun creative project! I absolutely loved making them and couldn't stop!! Try it!

Here's a short video with some flip thoughs below...

Mini Zip Pouches

I used a linen blend fabric by Anna Graham (Around The Bend Collection) for the exterior and a cotton fabric for the lining on these front zip coin pouches. The finished size is 4.5 inch square. 

Handy for your bills, coins, keys or even a mini notepad!

"Make a Stitch" has an easy to follow tutorial for this small zip pouch here. 

Simple to make, I'm sure to be sewing more!
