A handful of new sewing tutorials

If you haven't poked around Sew 4 Home lately, you might be missing a recent burst of free sewing tutorials. They're posting projects that show off some new fabric collections on the market. Check out a DIY color-blocked duvet cover and bolster pillow, above.

Or get free patterns for making vintage-looking kitchen stuff, including a pleated apron, oven mitts, and a toaster cozy. You know, just in case you've cranked your air conditioning up too high and your toaster gets chilly.

Here's a triangle-patterned table runner project. Find even more tutorials right here.

That triangle table runner would make a great quilt. Love the boldness!

I read each of their posts in Google Reader, just as I do yours. It's a great site! The last thing I sewed used their instructions - for a binkie leash for my brand new granddaughter. Their tutorials are so beautifully written and illustrated that a beginner just cannot go wrong.

I've actually been thinking of making a toaster cosy, but I'm calling it a dust cover. We don't make toast every day, and toasted dust smells bad! It'll probably never happen, though...

Oh my! Thank you for bringing me to Sew 4 Home site. So much beautiful inspiration. I just might have to take the dust cover (cozy) off my sewing machine.
