Amy Butler

I dont know what it takes to be a great designer. But what ever it is Amy Butler has it. Not only does she design materials. But she also makes patterns, and books.


If you want to get me a book for Christmas I really want her Institches book. Ive looked at it several times at B.A.M but have never made myself buy it.


Here is a free pattern from her website. Its the portfolios. Its kind of like the grown up version of the notebook and pencil holder i mentioned on the last post.


Plus, im still on the look out for something i can make dad, mom and my grandma. they seem to have everything they need. Erica if you have any advice let me know!

hand made gift ideas.

Sew, mama, sew is doing their cound down to Christmas hand made gifts.
After looking thru them these are my favorite.
Some people will probably get some of these as gifts this Christmas.
First: The notebook and pencil holder. Im planning on making some variations on it, but i love the idea of the inside cover holding the pencils. I will have to post on my finished projects and see if my variations work.
Second: a box bag tutotial. im not sure ill be able to follow and make these. But its a great tutorial.
Third: pants turned into a bag. This would be cute for one of the kids. I dont think it would work for an adult. ill just have to see. i dont really have an extra pair of pants laying around either.
There are many more ideas, embelishments and compilations.
Check it out for your self!
