Fabric Pockets

Here's an easy way to make an old pair of jeans feel like new. This project only uses a small amount of fabric, I chose to use some imported Japanese fabric. First, I cut the fabric about the same size as my pockets and then I hand stitched the fabric over the original pockets, folding in the raw edges.

ArtFire.com

Discovered ArtFire.com early this morning. It’s similar to Etsy.com but without posting fees. Since it’s not as popular as Etsy.com, I feel your post lingers on newest listings page for a longer period of time. Without fees you can’t go wrong. Check out my ArtFire.com vs. my Etsy.com. I must say I like the look of Etsy.com best.

Inspiration: Mom! My number one supporter who thinks I’m the best at everything I do. My Mom’s a strong, successful and compassionate woman. I admire and love her with all my heart… Thank you for everything, Mom. I’m so lucky you’re you!

Robot Button Fabric Earrings

Posted new earrings on etsy.com. The front sides are made with a designer woven fabric and a robot resin button. The back sides are a dark denim fabric. All edges are frayed but sewn closed. In between the fabric is a heavyweight interfacing for stability. Earrings measure 1.5"x1".

Handmade Fabric Earrings

I'm really tired, but wanted to get a quick blog in before bed... heehee. Just finished putting some of my fabric & button earrings on www.etsy.com. I made them from a couple of my favorite fabrics. The Robots are a light-weight Imported Japanese fabric, and the bright green flower fabric is from Designer Heather Ross. The ones with black and white flowers have denim fabric on the back side, and the ones with the knitted fabric are Missoni. While they appear simple, they take me forever to make. So... I'm excited about getting them out there and having a place to showcase them. Check it out! - terralynn.esty.com
