Gifts For The Bag Maker

Gift Guides - Nov. 12, 2020 - Jessica OklaRoots

Bag makers use such a wide variety of tools! From the items that make the hard work easier, to the ones that just make it SO much more fun, you won't be short on gift ideas for your bag making friends. I've included the essentials I use every day, as well as some cozy and inspirational items. As we move into colder weather, us barefoot sewers need to protect our tootsies. These slippers are my favorite! I also included 3 bag making books I have on my personal wish list. These are great to study for ideas and inspiration. Have fun and Happy Holidays!

    Which Kai Scissors do you have and love. I have an Ukranian friend who wants to buy some good scissors while she is in U.S. I heard you say that you loved your Kai Scissors and I would like to know which one. I saw a lot of them on Amazon Thankyou Jess

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!

The Globetrot Travel Sling from @chriswdesigns is PERFECT for keeping your items close and easily accessible without any bulk.

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 🤣
