I've seen so many cute ones, especially here at Fabric.com I don't know if these are on sale but they're a lot cheaper than the other stores. I got 3 Cookie jar ones on eBay for 3.99.
I'm also making some tissue cozies. I like this pattern because I can make it with a different inside fabric that compliments the outside fabric. She has changed the way she wrote the tutorial. It looks like there is no photo on the first page but just click on "get pattern" to get her template - I actually made mine a different size. Mine is 7" x 8.5". Then go back to the first page again and click "Enter Gallery" to find the instructions.
All through the meeting they kept handing things to me saying "Shirley can make a pattern for these". Boy they have a lot of confidence in me and they hardly know me really. I'm not proud of the stuff I put together quickly for the last bazaar. I know I can make patterns but I don't have a lot of self confidence. Anyway they handed me a sleeping mask and thats an easy one. I just traced it. I had already figured out how to do it but if you want instructions I found a series of videos here. The only thing I'm going to do differently is make the elastic in two pieces and attach velcro to it so the size is adjustable.
I'm having a hard time with my internal clock these days. I just can't get to sleep at night before 2am no matter how early I go to bed. Then I set my alarm for 9:00 but with my husband having sleeping problems (he's still up 3 or so times a night) I don't want it to wake him cause he does seem to sleep well in the morning after he's had breakfast. I think the solution would be for me to sleep in the guest room til I get turned back around but he doesn't want me to. Geesh. So here I sit at 12:30 in the afternoon still in my PJ's and having gotten nothing done but a blog entry. So I'm gonna go get dressed now and try to ignore sewing so I can tidy up around here a bit.
