Pleated Purse Tutorial

Look at this cool idea I found on Skip To My Lou

http://www.skiptomylou.org/2010/04/27/pleated-pouch-tutorial/

If you've seen my lined zippered purse tutorial and you want a bit more of a challenge then go to Skip To My Lou and try making this 'pleated purse'

Happy Crafting

Decopatch Dinosaur

So, lets just forget about my failed attempt of uploading the 'Stuffed Elephant Toy' tutorial I created, I'm sure that with a little perseverance I can get that tute up and running.

You could just admire the picture of it, like I'm doing right now !





Lets move onto something slightly different, like the Decopatch Dinosaur that I decorated.

Hello...

Welcome to The Lilac Zebra.

My name is Phoebe and this is my blog...

On this blog you will find a variety of sewing project ideas to suit your sewing needs, tutorials for some projects, and you can take a look at some of the things that I have made.
As well as sewing you can take a look at the other crafts I have tried, like Decopatch, drawing, making Scoubidous (the simpler versions!) and I have just recently had a go at knitting, so we'll see how that turns out later :)

Feel free to ask me any questions about my website or hobbies, share your own ideas with me and comment on any projects that I have posted.

I will try my best to post project ideas and tutorials as often as possible...

Happy Crafting,

Phoebe   x
