This week on YouTube!

This week's bag video is not only ADORABLE and the first time we've showcased a ByAnnie Pattern... it's also for a great cause! Ad revenue for this video for the month of October will be donated to breast cancer research! Check out this post to learn more.

I have a feeling many of you have an embroidery machine on your wish list this year.... and here's another project for you to plan for! This amazing notepad holders from Crashing Waves come together quickly and are the BEST last minute gifts!

The New Stuff:

More...

I'm completely hooked on slap bands for holding stabilizer, vinyl, thread... all of it! Here are some links to get you started: Kimberbell, Ruler, Plain, Fun.

So I haven't been able to find the exact link for this shirt yet, but keep an eye on the Juki Junkies website for fun sewing tshirts! 

These beautiful ears are my new favorite accessory! These were gifted to me from Mouse Made Magic, and I couldn't rave about them more. Make sure to check out their shop, they have bags too! 

I know I know I know... stop buying so much thread. But it's just so stinking pretty! The holiday varieged thread from Wizardry Stitchery came out, and I gobbled it up. AND! I'm already down half a spool. So I'm using it!

What's in the box?!

I'll share more this week, stay tuuuuuuuned!

This week’s tutorial is so fun! The quick and fun This week’s tutorial is so fun! The quick and fun Crystalline Pencil Pouch from @the.styled.magnolia is a big time sew-jo booster 😍 

Have you made a binder pouch like this? What would you use it for?? Obviously, I have a few ideas.

Full tutorial is available on the OklaRoots YouTube channel. Enjoy!

Yes, this zip pouch is adorable. Yes, you can get Yes, this zip pouch is adorable.
Yes, you can get really creative with materials and appliqué.
Yes, it’s super scrap friendly.
Yes, it’s beginner friendly.
Yes, it’s ridiculously fun to make.

But if those reason aren’t enough for you to try the Real Lip Shady from @kazconadesigns then let me give you one more: It is an incredible, confidence boosting skill builder. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve shied away from patterns that have that back and forth curvy zipper, for fear of it not turning out ::just:: right.

But this pattern? Easy peasy! The measurements are perfect, the tips are spot on, and the curvy wurvy zipper is glorious. 

10/10! You gotta make this.

These week we’re going up against my bag making ne These week we’re going up against my bag making nemesis: piping. And we’re nailing it! Mostly 😉

Today’s tutorial is going over the Traverse Bag from @noodlehead531 ! This bag is so much fun. It has the look of a messenger bag but the ease of a simple zip pouch. The functionality is spot on and it comes in two sizes! 

This is also September’s @bagmakingbeesclub Bee Box! The waxed canvas we’re using is stunning 😍. And although I usually reach for a webbing strap, that handmade strap is well worth the extra few minutes. 

Enjoy and happy Monday!
