Taking a quick sewing break to make.... mask chain

Taking a quick sewing break to make.... mask chains. Anyone else making these? I wasn’t so sure about them but they’re actually really helpful when you want to take your mask off but don’t want to set it on a table. Another one of this “I could have never predicted I would be making these” crafts. 🤷‍♀️ 😷

Anyone else have a DIY tester room? For us, it’s the laundry room. We try out all our home reno ideas there first. If it goes well then great! We can do that in more rooms. If it fails, no big deal, we don’t spend much time in there anyway.

I have so many accent wall and lighting changes and shelving options floating around in my head right now. My poor husband 😂.

It’s a rainy day here in Florida and I’m loving the mellow feel in the sewing room. These little petal pouches by @noodlehead531 come together so quickly, and you can really use whatever material you have on hand to make them.
•
The tutorial for this quickly project was released today, and I hope it offers some fun ideas for creating your own version.
•
Let me know when you make one! I cannot wait to see your version!
•
Happy Monday!

Ok, I know I’m not the only one here who takes preparing for new projects WAY too far. Why can’t I just purchase the colors I need? Why do I purchase ALL the colors? I mean, I know why. This lady likes options. And buying craft supplies is just too much fun.
•
So while I rearrange every room in my home to turn it into my own personal craft store, tell me what projects you make with felt. I love felt for embroidery and small hand sewn crafts. But I feel like there’s more we can do with it 🤔.
•
This beautiful bundle is from @benziedesign . And as much as I know I already have... I feel like I could use some more 😱. It’s a problem! I know!

Welcome to my office/warehouse 😍. The OklaRoots

Welcome to my office/warehouse 😍. The OklaRoots shop is officially open! Check out my stories today to see all the items listed on the site. The site is shopoklaroots.com and it is linked on my website.
•
I’m completely blown away by the love and support you’ve all given. This business dream started out as a quilt pattern writing gig (which I failed out, spectacularly), then transitioned to tutorials (took years and has been my favorite job!) and now includes selling physical goods that are helpful and bring a little bit of joy to total strangers (which, I mean, we’re not complete strangers, but you know).
•
Tutorials aren’t going anywhere, they are actually increasing! But I know how much it means to me to have a piece of the small businesses I love as part of my happy space, so I’m thrilled to offer it to you as well.
•
And yes, some handmade items are on the agenda for the shop. More on that later 😘.
•
Happy hump day!

I’m loving how excited so many of you are over the Quick and Fun zipper pouch! I know I’ve been a big fan of quick-sew projects lately. But don’t worry, we have some of the bigger, trickier designs coming soon!
•
Tell me what you have been sewing lately: smaller bags or the big ones? Or no bags at all?

Time for a giveaway!! I’m teaming up with the makers of one of my FAVORITE tools, KAM Snaps, to give away my favorite pink press, the 2.5mm hole punch die and the 10mm double rivet press die.
•
Now let’s chat for a moment. No amount of smiles can make us forget how difficult this year has been for many of us. Sickness and job loss have (hopefully) made an empath out of all of us. So for this giveaway, I’m really speaking to anyone who is experiencing hardship. Maybe you’ve opened up a handmade goods shop to supplement income, and a rivet press would be an extremely useful item. Maybe you have a friend or family member in that position, and a tool like this could be useful. Maybe the weight of 2020 has just wrecked havoc on you emotionally, and a tool that takes your handmade goods to the next level would be a therapeutic asset. I don’t need to know what’s going on, but I want this to end up in the right hands.
•
So comment on this post (either on Facebook or Instagram). You can just give a wave 👋, tag a friend, share your shop or vent. Whatever feels good for you will be an entrance. One entry per person. Shipping included. Giveaway ends October 16 2020.
•
Sending hugs to all of you! And I know each of you are doing the same for everyone else.

Thursday embroidery tutorial is out! Today we’re making some ADORABLE hand sanitizer holders using @crashingwavesdesigns patterns!
•
I need to come up with a name of embroidery Thursday...🤔. Something with a better ring to it.
•
Today’s tutorial uses the beautiful 10 needle EM1010 (aka - Ricky Bobby) to piece together these holders. It turns out to be a fast and fun make. I hope you enjoy it!

Is it noticeable that my zippers were installed in

Is it noticeable that my zippers were installed in opposite directions? NOPE! It’s not! Thanks for not noticing 😉.
•
This adorable bag is the Quick and Fun Zipper Pouch by Sewn Ideas, and it has quickly become one of my favorite makes 😍. Make sure to grab the pattern and use the discount code Okla25 (discount available for a limited time).
•
Do you make mistakes in your bags? Like, every time? I can probably point out a mistake in every bag I’ve made. Not just bad stitches, but either mis measuring or skipping an entire step in the pattern. This is why I don’t try a pattern for the first time in my videos 😂. It would be a lot of : “wait....what?! Oh geeze..”
