Crafty Weekly Roundup! 8.16.2021 – 8.20.2021

Stash Additions - Aug. 23, 2021 - Jessica OklaRoots

This week on YouTube!

Probably the most popular design of wallet to buy, we tried our hand at the small zip around wallet. This adorable pattern from Miss Freckles Designs comes out looking SO professional! Just take your time around those curves.

Mask chains are a daily accessory in our house! Whether it's school, the grocery store or traveling to local theme parks, it's so much easier to have our masks hanging close by than stuffed in someone's pocket. 

Goodies added to the stash:

More...

Lauren Mormino is the ultimate bag maker, so of course she offers some of the BEST supplies out there! These pumpkins and poison apples have me so ready for the fall!

This was my first order from Dream Big Creations, and I already have a cart full with my second. These pulls and webbing are some of the coolest I've seen yet! Pretty much whatever design you're looking for, they have it!

I may be putting in weekly orders with Wonderground Fabrics, and it's no surprising why. Gabbi has some of the most original vinyl out there! This clear vinyl is a treasure in my house, and the haunted pulls are going to be great on some spooky snack bags!

If you've placed an order with ShopOklaRoots, you know we love to have fun with our packaging! These perfect-for-me mailers from Magic Mail Supply Co are going to hold  every order this fall!

I have been using these custom labels from Heartwood and Hide on almost everything, and I know many of you have as well. Just a sneak peak of some amazing new color options they'll have this fall!

Misty over at Printy Fabrics sent over some of the coolest waterproof canvas I've seen yet! These printed designs will be perfect additions to your bag! She also has some amazing PUL options, as well as velvet coming soon. 

As you may have noticed, I have a lot going on over here. Too much, honestly. But to help keep track of everything I use multiple planners. These is my faithful planners for 2022!

For my personal life and day-to-day schedule, I use Large Planner from Rifle Paper Co. It has just enough room to write down everything for each day, and lays it out in a weekly format so I can plan ahead.

For OklaRoots, I need a planner with a lot more space. So I use the largest option from Plum Paper. This is fun because you can customize everything from the exterior design, to the layout on each page. A HUGE help for a small business!

This week we’re making a larger version of one of This week we’re making a larger version of one of the most popular sling patterns out there! Today’s tutorial is for the Fielder Sling by @kandoucrafts . 

I know I know, I keep talking about travel bags. I promise I’ll move on after this! But honestly, if you’re going to a crowded area, this bag is perfect to keep all your personals safe. It has multiple front pockets, lays flat against the body and has the coolest curved pocket on the back. And it’s a quick make!

If you want to make the small version of this bag check out the Mini Travel Sling from Kandou Patterns! 

Have a great week everyone ❤️❤️

Need a quick break from the summer chaos? A lil mi Need a quick break from the summer chaos? A lil mini retreat in your sewing room? I got you 😘

This week we’re whipping up the Sun Spec Duo from @sewnideaspatterns and it’s one of those patterns you could make a DOZEN of in a day! Super scrap friendly, great for beginners, and one of the most useful gifts you could give.

This cutie can easily hold two pairs of glasses, preventing any scratching, and even has a third pocket for extras! So smart!

Have fun making this!

Happy Father’s Day to our most favorite person in Happy Father’s Day to our most favorite person in the whole world 😘 You take care of all of us (and Babi) all day every day without hesitation or complaint. We’re so very very lucky to have you! We love you so much Derek!

The last of the cotton woven destash and it’s all The last of the cotton woven destash and it’s all CUSTOM FABRIC GROUPS 😱 Some of these prints are impossible to find anymore. And as much as I really love all of them, I just don’t use them enough. Time to stop hoarding and pass them along to someone else who will actually make something. 

These bundles (we call them the Cotton Woven Mystery Scrap Pack on @shopoklaroots ) will be added to Shop OklaRoots dot com today! Each bundle is completely random, but we did make sure to give a good distribution of themes. 

Enjoy!

We still need have a third bookcase full of custom group fabrics, and then we’ll move on to the Babi Boxes (which include an assortment of vinyl, nylon, waterproof canvas… who knows what!)

I hope you enjoy the destash!
Time to prep for travel! The Globetrot Travel Slin Time to prep for travel! The Globetrot Travel Sling from @chriswdesigns is PERFECT for keeping your items close and easily accessible without any bulk. In today’s tutorial I’m walking you through the unique way this beautiful bag comes together. I could make this over and over ❤️.

Enjoy!

Time to destash 😭😭 It hurts to do, but it needs to happen. I’m hoping all the beauties I let go of find new loving homes ❤️.

This is just one cabinet! I’ll tackle the other two later this week. 

Boxes will be listed on the site Monday at whatever-time-Babi-decides 🤣 
Patreon - she’ll post in the Facebook group when they’re ready 💪
