Sewing Fun


A few weeks ago I came across this tutorial on the Gen X Quilters Blog . I don't like pinning my name tag on my shirt so I thought this was a good solution. This was made for keys but I modified it a bit for my name tag. It is super fast and easy.


I made this one this morning BEFORE Zumba, that's how easy it is. It takes longer to pick out the fabric and iron it than it does to make it. This is going to one of my favorite teachers (daughter in law Mary) for her birthday.

  7. I don't like pinning things to my shirts either and prefer lanyard style name tags. What a great idea!

  8. Yay- thanks for saying you don't like pinning name tags on. I joked about getting a tshirt printed with "Hi I'm Rachael" to wear instead of wearing a name tag , but this is a much better idea, fun and stylish. I think its so cool you do Zumba, I've never tried it but it sounds fun.

  9. So cute! I could use a new one for my keys and I always prefer to wear a tag around my neck (not pin it on).
