Today I finally sat down and gave it a whirl. I have to be honest and say I didn't read any of the instructions... just looked at the pictures and went from there. I used my own size fabric too.... I hate reading instructions! </div><br /><br /><div></div><br /><br /><div>I also want to say....no matter how much you hate to do something....go ahead and DO IT! While I didn't have major problems...it would have just went alot smoother if I had READ. </div><br /><br /><div></div><br /><br /><div>All in all I'm happy and the size I made turned out to be the perfect size!! It fit one of the pencil cup things I already had perfectly. Now I have to make another one since I have two identical pencil cups! The other one looks sad and plain now. </div><br /><br /><div></div><br /><br /><div>Here's the 'before' and 'after'.... </div><div></div><br /><div></div><br /><div><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5290237594331765458" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 240px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_L9lwP0DmybA/SWqzECuP2tI/AAAAAAAAAAM/sDlHLYSA5H8/s320/043.JPG" border="0" /></div></div><br /><p><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5290238464725558674" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 240px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_L9lwP0DmybA/SWqz2tMTJZI/AAAAAAAAAAU/4WoWOb0B9y0/s320/042.JPG" border="0" /></p><p> </p><p>I think it's rather cute! I got the tutorial from the blog <a href="http://vintagericrac.blogspot.com/">'Ric-Ric'</a>.... Jodie is soooo creative! Check it out if your looking for some fun stuff to try out!</p><p>Next I think I'll head over to <a href="http://www.skiptomylou.org/">'Skip to my Lou' </a>and try to make one of her <a href="http://www.skiptomylou.org/wp-content/uploads/2007/02/lincolns-drawing-pad-holder.jpg">Children’s Crayon and Drawing Pad Holders</a>... I'll have to wing it but I think I might be able to figure it out. I'm sure I could find an actual pattern out there somewhere but I'll try it on my own first. I know a little girl who would love one of these!</p><p>I'll let you all know how it goes! </p><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8490549164328314092-4412519571263581506?l=craftybrattt.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>crafty brattthttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07896670945958887442noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8490549164328314092.post-51820741728811216652008-12-08T19:43:00.000-08:002008-12-08T19:45:03.095-08:00Hello!
