That Thing I’m Not Doing…

Posted on October 19, 2011 by ginabean • 1 Comment
Okay… you know that thing that I am NOT making things for because I’m NOT having a table at it because I’m NOT doing it. Yeah, that thing. It’s this weekend. I’m still NOT doing it, but if you come to it, you might just see me there and I might just be standing behind a table that could or could not have things I’ve made on it. Just sayin’.
Actually, it is going to to pretty AWE-SOME! (not because I’m not doing it either.) Karen got pallets and pallets full of the most beautiful Westminster fabric and it is all going to be $5 a yard. Yes! that is not a typo! 5 Bucks! Like I said…. pretty awesome. We are talking Amy Butler, Heather Bailey, Joel Dewberry, tons of Kaffe. You know… some primo stuff. There are also flannels and quilted fabrics. I have seen it! This is no rumor. I can confirm! She also will have some very cool quilted bags, thread, accessories. All kinds of good stuff. Oh…. and some insane deals on charm packs, fat quarter bundles, & design rolls.
If you are a quilter, fabric hoarder, whatever… you should be there! As Rachel Zoe would say, it is going to be BA-NAN-A-S. If you are a VIP, you can even partake of the special preview Friday night. (I have some pretty good connections… I can get you in.)

Water Bottle Fobs

More stuff… these are Water Bottle Fobs that I made to sell at Flaunt. They have a rubber washer that slips over the top of the water bottle so you can wear it on your wrist and carry it.
In answer to the questions from the last post about a tutorial for the Wine Bottle Bag…I don’t have a tutorial, but I will put one together for you. I will try to get it posted sometime in the next week or so. They are pretty easy to make and would by perfect for the Holidays.

Wine Bottle Bags

Posted on September 29, 2011 by ginabean • 3 Comments
Did I say that I was going to sew Journal Covers today? Man, am I so full of it. It is 3:30 pm and I haven’t made it to the unfinished little part of the basement that is my sewing room. I’ll call it a “Sewing Studio” because it makes it sound like I have some fabulous area that I sew in everyday . You know… a “studio” with floor to ceiling white shelving and robins egg blue walls and hardwood floors. Oh… and endless bolts of beautiful fabric. (This is what I like to pretend my cement floor / block wall garage turned sewing room looks like.) A girl can dream. Anywho… this is a Wine Bottle Bag for the craft show that I am NOT doing.

Crunch Time

Posted on September 28, 2011 by ginabean • 3 Comments
I’ve been absent from my blog for a while because I have been sewing my brains out. There are about 3 weeks until Flaunt. I keep saying that I am not going to have a table there, but for some reason I seem to keep sewing things for it. My new favorite is this Composition Book Cover. I’m digging the grommet. Tomorrow I plan on getting a bunch of these made. I have the fabric all cut out and ready to assemble. I’m going to try and post pictures of some more things that I am making to NOT sell at the table I’m NOT going to have at Flaunt 😉 over the next three weeks! You will probably gather from the variety of things I’ve made that I have some serious A.D.D.

More Stuff

Can you tell I have been in the “sweat shop” that is my sewing room. I’ve gotten some pacifier clips made for Flaunt. Many more things are on schedule to be made, but I’m kinda getting burnt out. I think I need a “Bahamavention”. Well, maybe just a day by the pool or something. Or a pedi. Yeah, a pedi would be nice.

Bookmarks?

Posted on August 8, 2011 by ginabean • 4 Comments
I made these cute little bookmarks and then I got to thinking….does anyone even read books anymore, or do they all use Kindles and Nooks? Maybe I should have made sleeves for them instead.
