I am checking things off of my list for this month and I gotta tell you, it feels good!! :-)
Not wanting to get involved in any of my bigger projects yesterday, I made my gifts for Christmas Through the Year.
Lingerie bags! ~and the cool thing is, all I did was add the binding! I saw this on Lori Holt's Bee in My Bonnet blog and loved the idea! Here is her tutorial. I found the bags at Target just like she said I would. :-) I did do mine a little bit different though. I added the binding like you would quilt binding~ sewing it to one side and flipping it to sew to the other. I sewed it to the back and flipped it to the front though. Then I stitched in the ditch on the back. You can see through the mesh so easily that you can see that you have enough to catch the front, when sewing on the back. I love the finished look of straight sewing. :-)
As I was sewing I was thinking~ these would be great as a gift to a new mom too~ all those cute little baby socks wouldn't get lost in the wash! :-)
Hope you are having a happy Monday! Until next time~
Happy Stitchin'!!
