Another Wonderful Shabby Burlap Rose on a Burlap Bag.....!!!!

Hello there!!!!
Just so excited to share with you what Nancy from La Maison Reid has been up to lately.....

Let me tell you the background story:
First she saw a darling burlap purse online but it was $95!!!!   Now, she said she could afford $95 for a purse but wanted the challenge of seeing if she make one as cute for a whole lot less than $95!!!!!  So she hit the sewing room and came out with a VERY EXTREMELY STRIKINGLY darling burlap purse....!!!!  {not just a "regular" darling purse like the one she had seen online.....)

 

Nancy describes with wonderful pictures  on her blog how she fabricated the burlap bag.

 

She used the method from our own sister blog {Tutorial Boutique} to make the shabby burlap rose, 

like the one shown in Haute Handbags {Spring 2010 Issue}. 

 

It is so fun to see what the bloggy readers have come up with!

Please share with me what you are sewing up at home!

I am excited to show you what sewing projects I have up my sleeve, 

{or at least in the vicinity of the sewing machine......}

Thanks so much for stopping by...!!!

btw.....

I love hearing {or reading} your feedback!

Keep me posted....hahaha

{Yes pun intended!!! lol!!!}

Have a fabulous weekend!!!!

Bulap Wreath with Rosettes

This wreath was made by Jenn from Redberry Barn
I absolutely love the way it turned out.

















Jenn is very skilled at folding rosettes as you can see. And she is a talented wreath-maker, to say the least!
Way to go!

DIY Burlap is HOT

the DYI-Dish regularly does projects with burlap.


They mostly use regular burlap, but wouldn't it be cute to duplicate their fun designs with a burlap potato sack, so the print shows at random....?

I think it would be just striking and amazing.

Make Burlap Roses from Potato Sack Cloth

My friend Amy was kind enough to teach me how to fold fabric roses, which method I used here for making this cute embellishment on a handbag. Instructions on how to make one are available on my How-To blog at http://tutorialboutique.blogspot.com/.
It is so fun to do, and very easy!
