Okay - maybe it's the coffee I have been drinking ALL DAY, but I am very excited to announce the first of my patterns available for sale in my etsy shop! I managed to get the PayPal widget onto this blog as well so people can purchase the pattern directly from here if they would like - the widget adds some time to the page loading - anyone have any thoughts?
The pattern is for my Sniffle Travel Tissue Holder and it would not have been possible without the graphics help of my friend from etsy - flashwithclass - she is the best and the first person I go to when I need banners, ad logos, web design help - absolutely wonderful to work with!
This is the first in a new line of patterns I am working on - it is perfect for beginners with a basic knowledge of sewing. You will need to know how to straight stitch and zig-zag stitch with your machine in order to complete the project.
This pattern can be a jumping off point for your creativity. You are welcome to make the tissue holders and sell them online and at craft shows. I encourage you to add your own embellishment to the pattern - there are all kinds of great trims and buttons out there!
The Sniffle pattern makes use of smaller pieces of fabric - you just need two (2) pieces of cotton fabric that are at least 7 x 7" (to lay out the pattern template), along with scissors, pins, thread, 1/2" double-fold bias tape, an iron and a sewing machine and you are good to go.

Goodluck with the patterns -- the tissue holders look great.
(And my internet connection can be touchy, but the paypal widget doesn't seem to be slowing it down too much)
Thanks for the note and the info re: the widget - I appreciate it!
Congrats on the new addition to your store. It must be really exciting!!
But more important for me is that I just solved my own little mystery! For days I've been unable to get the image out of my head of the cat in the Carmen Miranda hat but I could not remember where I saw it. I even mentioned it in a reply to one of my blog posts. So today I flip to your blog and MYSTERY SOLVED! It's Kenneth!!!
Love the beautiful prints! The widget isn't slowing things down for me either. - CT
