STEPS
Petal Bag
1. Set the sewing machine up with a straight stitch. Matching thread in top and bobbin and new universal 80/12 needle.
2. Cut and press fabric.
3. Place 15” squares right side together and sew ¼” seam allowance all the way around. Use the Sew-n-Fold method to get nice crisp corners.
4. Turn pieces right side out using the EZ Point & Turner. Use the bamboo point turner to help get point and press.
5. Topstitch ¼” around all four sides, make sure to catch the opening.
6. Create casings. With Outside of bag right side up, measure from each corner 5” on all sides. At the 5” mark on each corner fold towards the outside showing off the Inside. Pin fold in place and repeat on all four corners.
7. Sew ½” away from the fold on each corner through all layers, backstitch at the beginning and end.
8. Cut ribbon in half so there are (2) 1-yard cuts. Feed one ribbon through each casing and tie a knot at the end. Repeat with the other 1-yard cut from the opposite direction. This will create the drawstring effect.
9. Fill with goodies and give your gift along with the petal bag.

My new favorite thing!

This is the 4 Pocket Organizer by @yazziicraft

Fun fact, did you know all Yazzii products are made in India with true craftsmanship and all the pieces are hand cut and stitched on treadle machines! The workmanship is amazing and from one creative to another is truly appreciated.

Thank you Yazzii for gifting me this bag it will be on my desk from now on!

Bear and I filmed over the weekend how to use this beautiful steamer and let me just say, she is something special!

What is IGGI?
IGGI is a hygienic handheld steamer that steams and unwrinkles clothes at high pressure thoroughly beautifying even the most delicate fabrics in only a few seconds. It also disinfects all fabrics and objects. The hygienic Dry Microfine Steam (DMS) naturally kills 99.9% of viruses (including the coronavirus) and bacteria present throughout the household without the use of any chemicals. The IGGI is a unique 2-in-1 device that both removes wrinkles from textiles and sanitizes clothes, surfaces, and objects.

Behind the scenes peek of LIVE at the Beehive our

Behind the scenes peek of LIVE at the Beehive our weekly sewing show!

Bear (aka Joey my husband) is my producer and sorta my co-host. He keeps me laughing and moving the show along. We sang a little, shared some personal insights to our life, and had fun doing it. We had such a great time and can’t wait for next weeks show. For now we’re going to aim for 3pm Wednesday and see how many are able to show up and watch the replay.

The “Technique of the week” was part 1 of a 3 part series on Applique. I showed off several products and two different stabilizers from @designsinmachineembroidery that are super cool. Talked about the Notion of the week, the Word of the Year, and showed off the Yazzii 100+ Thread organizer!! If you want a chance to win the @yazziicraft bag, head to the video, find the mystery question and leave a comment answering it. Winner announced next Wednesday in the show where we’ll be showing another something off for another weekly prize.

Please do check it out and let us know what you think.
