These two belts also came out of my little frenzy. I followed this tutorial and they come together in a snap. Easy peasy.

patchy
Yesterday my sewing machine and I had a nice lunch date. I apparently became obsessed with patchwork and started sewing scraps together like a maniac. When I saw Kirsten's scarf a few days ago, I remembered the scarf in the Denyse Schmidt book I had been wanting to make for awhile. I only slightly followed her directions and used some various scraps of odd fabrics I had lying around. The back is lined with some flannelish fabric that I don't even know where it came from. ![](https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhrqdtJoogigZkdZgAVQvavuZ8XpxjyKKKl-862ocmfwU88ewaaujLDOzzhd3k4-UyUjozrShyWraQwkKiWlKyqCVuaIHvkanXfWUoAAb8Du4SFkYzoOxzR-T7XWA0x3a020vOQZw/s320/100_4808.JPG)
I kinda like it and I'm resisting keeping it for myself. Oh where are you fall?? I want to wear some cool weather clothes with flip-flops! Anyway, simple project and fun to do. I'm thinking a few more of these might be whipped up for the upcoming craft fair in november.
I love the scarf. Lots of pink. Yay!
ReplyDeleteI love wearing a cotton sweater, capri's and my flip-flops in the fall. Or jeans and flip-flops. But then I'll wear just about anything with flip-flops.
Very nice, Katie.
ReplyDeleteI've had those same projects in my mind for a long time.
They look fabulous!
ReplyDeleteVery nice. I too, can't wait for some cooler weather. It will be nice to wear something warm and cozy.
ReplyDeleteSuper cute scarves!! And the belts are awesome too:)
ReplyDeleteThe scarf looks fantastic. Maybe I should be sewing scraps together? I am already eying my sweaters just waiting for a cool morning and wear them.
ReplyDeletelovin that pink and gray!! where is fall anyhow?
ReplyDeleteOh Katie, these are so great! Wonderful job.
ReplyDeleteIt turned out fantastic!
ReplyDeleteThat scarf looks fabulous! Too funny, I just made a scarf a couple weeks ago too! :)
ReplyDeleteI am itching to make a scarf soon, too. I like the belts-you chose great fabrics to go together.
