Make It A Handmade Mother's Day




If you're thinking it's too late to create something for your mum this Mother's Day, think again!

There really is nothing better than giving and recieving a handmade gift.

I have four easy sewing projects that you'll be able to knock out in under 10 minutes!!

1. Set of Pillowcases


Super easy and a little addictive to make. Make some for your mum, yourself, and the kids while you're at it!
Find the tutorial here

2. Cushion Covers


Again, these can be really addictive once you've made one! Grab some beautiful bright fabric and follow the tutorial here

3. Pin Cushion


Every sewer needs some cute pin storage and these pin cushions can be whipped up in minutes following these simple steps:
* cut two pieces of fabric 6 1/2" x 6 1/2"
* with right sides together, sew arond the outside edge with a 1/4' seam allowance, leaving a 2" gap for turning
* clip the corners and turn right side out. Stuff with hobby fill or stuffing & topstitch right around the outside, closing up the gap

4. Tissue Covers


Just about every Mum carries tissues with her at all times. Why not make one of these cute tissue covers so she can wipe noses in style :)

See, it's not too late to get your sew on & create something beautiful for your mum! Make one or make them all!!

HAPPY SEWING!!

Til next time,
