We kept our guests busy last week by helping them make some cool stuff for back to school.  Annie made this darling tote. We used this tutorial and added an applique to the front.  We used the letter template from this post but enlarged the letter about 200%.

Look at the cool crayon rolls they made. Annie made hers with a ribbon and Will used a cord stop for the  closure.

We machine basted the rick rack in place.  It made it much easier for Annie to sew the crayon roll together and not have to worry about the rick rack slipping.

What talented kids!

Looking for more fun stuff for back to school?

Make a recycled pencil bag or a fun zippered pouch.  Don’t forget to start the year off right with a gift for your teacher.  You will find teacher appreciation sayings for back to school  here and ideas for appreciating your teacher all year long here.
