I really don't know what's up with me and Christmas gifts this year. I just don't know what to buy! As my daughter would say "FAIL".
However, there's no way I'll let that "fail" discourage me. It's to the sewing machine for a rescue.
I ran to Walmart and bought some cute fabric and zippers. Dog Under My Desk has the coolest free tutorial on an earbud pouch.
You'll want to see her other cool things; check out her website and blog. Oh, I do want to say that Erin (Dog Under My Desk) also has a Etsy shop where she sells these and other products.
One of the gals commented on Erin's site that it took her only 20 minutes to sew this up. Well, it took me 20 minutes just to fussy cut mine out!! LOL!! And another hour to sew it but that did include hiding it as my daughter kept walking through the house.
I even fussy cut a little surprise dinosaur for inside the pouch.

Love that fabric. I don't think our Walmart has fabric. I love that little pouch for the ear buds. Thanks for the link.
ReplyDeleteSorry. I was logged in on another account so I deleted the previous comment.
ReplyDeleteI have seen this tutorial before and have even bookmarked it. I'd love to make a few of these but my sewing time has been very restricted the last few weeks. Next week is looking better though.
Such a cute idea, great fabric. Have to check that site out.
ReplyDeleteThat is adorable! You did an amazing job fussy cutting that fabric!
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness Linda, that is so cute!! She will surely LOVE it! You definitely saved yourself from a "fail". lol I am having a hard time knowing what to give people this year, too.
