In Stitches July
Dear Finny,
I was looking through In Stitches last night and man if we haven’t already done a ton of projects! I am so proud of us. This group has come together to make some pretty incredible things. Bravo ladies!
I can’t wait to tackle the patchwork purse and the wallet. However, the dog-days of summer have arrived and I want a project that is easy and will make my life a bit more relaxing this time of year.
July’s project is the bathroom caddy. The theme is luxury. Fill it with your favorite beauty products and tell us why they make you smile. And don’t forget to post your photo in the flickr pool by the end of the month so we can pick a winner. Anyone can participate! Fin, who is the winner for June?
xoxo,
Donk

I’ve yet to make anything from this book, but I have plans to! Maybe tomorrow I’ll dig through the fabric stash and whip something up.
June 30th, 2007 at 5:21 amlove that one! can’t wait to try it!
June 30th, 2007 at 5:22 amI love that organizer!
I have ht ebook but doubt I will make anything for awhile. Today I am sewing baby gifts.
June 30th, 2007 at 6:16 amSounds like a perfect project for July!
June 30th, 2007 at 7:56 amThat’s a great organizer. It would make a great gift too. I think I’m going to get that book and start trying some projects, since I’m not scared of my sewing machine anymore!
June 30th, 2007 at 8:17 amWow! I love it! I think I’m going to have to go out and buy this book. I like so many of the things in it.
June 30th, 2007 at 8:47 amThis would make great Christmas gifts…
Nice. That looks like a fun sew. What do I know!? I don’t sew!
Have a great weekend.
June 30th, 2007 at 9:02 amOooohh, a great project and I get to spy on other people’s favorite beauty products. It’s a winning combination!
June 30th, 2007 at 2:09 pmCute caddy and you are going to town with other stuff beside all your running and swimming and biking. Many faceted woman!
June 30th, 2007 at 4:42 pmOh yay! I can’t wait to make that. As for the patchwork purse, I started it like 4-5 months ago and it’s still not finished. I have a love hate relationship with that project. Grrr.. makes me mad just thinking about it!!
Ok, so now I should finish June’s project hee hee
June 30th, 2007 at 5:57 pmI wish I knew how to sew. =[
July 1st, 2007 at 10:52 amSo awesome!! Listen, I’d love to whip up something as colorful and durable as the things you have created, but am not as experienced … advice?
Have a great Sunday!!
July 1st, 2007 at 11:39 amGood call, my friend. I’ll post the winner for June shortly. Woo! I’m drunk with power! Or perhaps that is a remnant from yesterday’s hillbilly BBQ. Oh yes, redneck BBQ season is in full swing around here. Which means my caddy will be packed with sunscreen.
July 1st, 2007 at 1:22 pmI was just telling Hubbard that I needed to replace the shower caddy, and then I saw this one. I am smitten, and on a new quest. I’m am going to buy that book, and start learning to sew, fingers be damned! I love how colorful your life is!
July 1st, 2007 at 10:24 pmWonderful Idea! Will try to make one to
July 3rd, 2007 at 4:34 amPretty! (and this’ll be a fun one to sit back and watch! Lovely sewing and product tips and reviews? Bring it on!)
gah - you can tell I’m excited - look at how exclamation pointy I am!
July 3rd, 2007 at 9:46 amI’m going to try really hard to make this one!
July 3rd, 2007 at 2:09 pmYou’re tagged
July 3rd, 2007 at 6:26 pmThat bathroom caddy is just gorgeous! Love the fabric!
July 4th, 2007 at 1:10 pmLove the caddy. So cheerful and pretty. I really need to make one of these projects!
July 5th, 2007 at 4:52 pm[…] Dear Finny, Okay, let’s face it — my priorities are all wacky. I’m supposed to be one of the leaders of this In Stitches sew-along and frankly, I’m just not keeping up. I really am quite excited about the bathroom caddy we selected for the July project, and I even know the theme I’m going to rock. I just haven’t made the time to sit down and sew it yet. […]
