One of the main excuses we have for not making our own clothing or home fashions is the lack of knowledge of how to sew. The second excuse is the time it would take to even do so. Luckily with access to the world wide web and the availabilty of almost every how to video, downloadable tutorial, and quick reference/resource guides, learning how to sew just got 100x easier. The best part is that once you learn how to sew, there are several quick and easy projects that take hardly any time to complete, some in less than an hour! That’s right! In less time than it takes you to pick out an outfit for that hot date or catch up on the latest episode of your favorite sitcom, you can complete any of a number of cool felt crafts, novelty cotton fashion accesories or home accent pieces made from upholstery fabric or decorative fabric ,and still have time to exhale. From satin pillows and vintage novelty aprons, to funky nylon bags and denim pants, sewing it all together is quicker than you think once you know how.

Easy Craft “Tee-Bag’s” What to do with an old T-Shirt
Have you ever wondered what to do with all those t shirts found in storage chests, laundry baskets, in the bottom of dresser drawers or behind your children’s beds? I am talking about the ones that no longer fit right, look right, or feel right anymore. The ones too unattractive to keep for lounging around in, and too nice to shred up into dust rags for your Saturday house chores. They are the ones your father-in law brought home from his Domino Tournament last year as a souvenir of his triumphant win. They are those boring corporate shirts with fancy logo’s your boss gave you for Christmas instead of that long awaited raise….year after year. These are the tees that we could do without, until now.
