cute {and easy!} sewing projects

Love love loving this little table runner featured in Country Living made out of linen napkins all sewn together. So cute how they are all mismatched and a little off-kilter! And such an easy sewing project too.

It reminds me of this project from Selvedge {via Decor8} - curtains made of tea towels sewn together with mis-matched patterns, which is all the more charming. IKEA's Elly tea towels would actually work great for this project!

create your own fabric

Flipping through the pages of the latest Canadian House & Home magazine, I came across this website - SpoonFlower.com - that allows you to create your own custom fabric! Wow...this sounds like fun! Apparently you can create a design or drawing, upload your images, play with layout options, and then place your order for $18/yard. Perfect for crafty sewing projects when you just can't find the right fabric...I think I might give this a go!
