We love to share our sewing skills with all of the people (and even pets) we love. The key word today is functional. Pearl Krush is our first designer. She creates the most usable diaper bag you've ever seen with a really great fabric selection. Then, editor Tricia Waddell makes a simple cat placemat for a favorite pet's food bowl. Next, it's birthday party 101 for your favorite little girl with Trish Preston. Create a special garment to show her style. Last, Jessica Johnson gets out a serger for a quick crib sheet in more fun fabric.
