Our beginner-friendly Rosalie Apron is named after S4H Studio Kitty, Rosalie Madeline – a nod to the cute Here Kitty Kitty fabric by Cori Dantini for FreeSpirit Fabrics. The apron is as soft and light as a cat’s whiskers with no added interfacing, allowing it to wrap and tie for a super comfy fit. When
Color Blocking is the art of combining solid color squares and rectangles into a bold yet cohesive design. Its origins are usually attributed to Piet Mondrian, an artist who lived around 1900 and whose paintings were a collection of stark lines and flat, colorful blocks.

In cooking, sometimes it takes just a pinch of this and a dash of that to bring a dish to its full flavor. It’s similar in sewing, where a splash of embellishment can be the finishing touch to make your project shine. For this classic single-layer apron, we used the Janome 3-Way Cording foot to

Applying initials to something to identify it as undeniably yours dates back as far as the signet rings of the ancient Romans.

With a slim silhouette and two deep pockets, this pouch is the go-to accessory that can go-anywhere. We used waterproof canvas bound with fold-over elastic. Brand new to sewing? This project can add to your sewing skills.

Wide wale corduroy is a top trend. Although it’s most often seen in the garment category, we knew it would also make a gorgeous tote. Our choice: a solid ice white corduroy with bright cotton for the lining and striking webbing.

Whimsical Tula Pink fabric and eye-popping Tula webbing is paired with a solid faux suede for the upper trim and the clever front flap that covers deep, double front pockets. The lightly quilted texture keeps it fashionably fabulous.

Detailed fussy cutting and precise stitching create an apron that is truly one of a kind. We originally used the amazing Curiouser and Curiouser collection by Tula Pink. Follow our path or choose your own favorite combo.

Fabric weaving plus decorative stitching-in-the-ditch packs a powerful color punch! Start with one 40-piece jelly roll bundle, and with clever seaming and slicing, end up with two different, yet completely coordinated 20” pillows.

It’s the classic special touch: adding a little something on top. Pie is great. Pie with whipped cream is awesome. This pretty pillow overlays patchwork with a touch of embroidery. It’s a simple way to make a stunning statement.
