Luggage Tags to Sew

 It's becoming a tradition for me to make luggage or  Stampin' Up! Convention bag tags for my convention team members.  This year's tags sport pretty Marina Mist Polka dots and Daffodil Delight Chevron Fabric.  

 

Robin's Luggage Tag Tips

•  Press adhesive sheet (122194) to the back of 8-1/2" x 11" piece of Essentials Designer Fabric (126892).  Type Tag information:  Name, Address and phone number.  Place fabric in printer and print. The Fabric adhesive gives your fabric just the right firmness to print in your home printer.
• Trim to desired size.  Be sure leave room for seam allowances.
• Press and sew handle (2" x 12" strip of designer fabric).

 

Place Fabric right sides together and insert handle as shown.  Stitch around edges 1/4".  Be sure to leave opening.  Trim closely next to stitching and round corners.

 Turn right side out.  Press and hand stitch opening.  Stitch 1/4" from edge all around tag.  If desired stitch another decorative row inside first stitching.

Imagine my surprise when we were presented our Stampin' Up! Convention Bags.  Our tags were a perfect match. Shazam!

Make an IPhone Case

For Convention I sewed these pretty polka-dot IPhone cases to give to roommates and to members of my team with Top Sales.  Let me show you how.

Cut 2 strips of Essentials Designer Fabric (126892) 4" x 10-3/4".  Also cut 2 pieces of Fabric Adhesive (122194) and 1 piece of batting the same size.  Cut a 1" x 2" of designer fabric for loop.

Iron Fabric Adhesive to backside of large strips of fabric.

Place fabric with fronts facing each other and the batting on top.  Stitch 1/4" from edge.  Leave a 2" opening.  Trim closely along stitch line and round corners.

Turn Right side out. Press.  Hand Stitch opening. Iron and stitch loop.

Loop clasp or ring and stitch to back or inside of case.

Fold over case and stitch closely to edges.

Twitterpated Designer Fabric and the Dresden Designs Bigz Die team up to make these scissor sleeves.  Better yet, the are quick and easy to make.

Take the work out of cutting the Dresden pattern.  The Dresden Designs Bigz Die easily cuts 6 layers of fabric with one quick pass through the Big Shot.  Yeah!

Cut 4 pieces, 2 of each design.  Place right sides together and stitch the curve. 

Clip, turn right side out and press.  Repeat with second set.

Stitch pieces together at sides and bottom.  Turn and press.

Time to decorate.  Turn down flap and sew on accents.  I used a Regals Designer Button and Baja Breeze Pleated Ribbon.  

Cutting 6 layers with one pass through the Big Shot makes the Dresden Plate quick and easy to piece together.  Pictured with the Twitterpated Designer Fabric (125412).  I plan to use my 3" Circle die to complete my Dresden Plate.

Look at the lovely quilt that was on display at the Columbus, Ohio Stampin' Up! Regionals.

 

Love this Butterfly pillow that was on display at Stampin' Up! Regionals.
