Needles-n-Pins Stitcheries: Upcycle Back To School

Yep....getting to be that time of year again isn't it. I can't believe kids are starting to go back to school. Was that a fast summer or what! Some of you will be starting that back to school shopping so why not check out some of these upcycled finds from Etsy. 




BJ Anthony Designs has this drawstring backpack that was made from a pair corduroy pants. Looks like something the kids would like. 

Now I know what I can do with all those old floppy disks that I have sitting in the drawer! ReComputing has this one. 

Ok.....I have seen lots of upcycled things, but check out this notebook cover from LeeEmporium. It is made from a potato chip bag!! Now that is different. 

This is just a few items I found on Etsy. Why not head on over and see what you can find. 

Have a great week!

Needles-n-Pins Stitcheries: Making a Beach Bag

So there is still time to hit the beach before summer and if your beach bag is worn out and you need another one here is a really quick video from SewVeryEasy. Looks like it is a very easy one to make too. If I had a beach to go to I might make it myself. LOL! :)

Happy Sewing!

Sherri at A Quilting Life is generously giving away a pack of Jolly Bars to three lucky winners! Aren't they pretty?

I thought about keeping this all to myself but how could I be so selfish! Yes, I would love to win but I would like for you to win also. Three winners will be announced on Friday. If you would like a chance to enter, click on the photo above. Fingers crossed!

Thanks for stopping by today!
