Kitty hat!

Since Junior is always pretending to be a kitty, he got a simple kitty hat for his birthday.

It wasn't too hard - two measurements, 1 rectangle of fleece, two seams, and a bit of trim to make it fancy.

After she saw it, Snurf wanted one, too. It took me a whole 15 minutes to put another one together, and it was that long only because I had to change my bobbin thread!

Now there's two kitties in my house!

Little jeans bag

I made this a few months ago, but I'm posting it by request. When I make my next one, I'm going to cut the bottom of the bag to follow the contours of the pocket instead of squaring them off like this one. The handle is the inside seam of the jeans.

Sewing project - Happy zippered pouch

Eager to make something with bright colors and inspired by projects on Craftster.org, I found this fabric in the remnant bin at the local JoAnn's Fabric store. They're fairly easy to make and incredibly useful. I have one in my purse to hold all sorts of little things and another one for my iPod and accessories.
