Two weeks ago I was at Joanns and saw fabric that made my heart go pitter patter. I stood there running my hand along it trying to think up a project that I needed it for. Alas, it was not fitting the bill for my current to-do list. I went home, but just kept thinking that I had to have it! So what does one do? Search blog land until I find a project that I MUST have that fabric for!
That's when I went to The Cottage Home, for this tutorial. It seemed fairly straight forward, and it was. I was able to complete the entire thing while Jack took a nap, and I knocked two birds out with one stone - learning how to use fusible fleece, and make a ruffle for the first time! Here is a close up the ruffle, it's been flattened with an iron, and the edges sewn down.
Here she is, in all her pride and glory! Don't mind Jack's activity mat. To justify my purchase (but come on, lets get real here, I got a quarter yard of each, for $0.87 each, no justification needed!) I told Josh that I made this because he says the strap always digs into his neck. He smelled my lie a mile away, and said thanks for making it girly LOL. Whoops, busted. Aren't the fabrics cute?!
