Round Rainbow Zipper Pouch
I could create rainbows all day long and put them on everything. I also love creating little handy bags that I can use to carry all the things. Today I’m sharing the cutest bag of all, a round clam shaped bag or the clam zipper pouch, with a fun eclectic rainbow. The making of a rounded pouch is actually very simple and quick to do but because I had to have a rainbow featured on it, it did take a little longer than normal but it actually was very therapeutic for me. I loved picking out the rainbow fabrics and figuring out how to make this rounded bag the right…

My Everyday Statement Top
I always dream of making dresses and having a whole closet of beautiful, but also very functional, dresses. But then I sew a dress and it is beautiful and fabulous but only gets worn for special occasions and church on Sunday’s and I wonder why did I even do that if I’m not going to wear it more often. This realization has led me to reach for patterns I will actually wear more often, like every single day, if I could. At this point in life I’m a comfy top and jeans kinda girl.
