From my sewing room this week: The Reversible Halloween Tote!
Made with Ali Foster's Reversible Tote pattern, of course!
I used to be afraid of bias tape, but every time I make one of these totes, I'm reminded that my fear is completely unfounded. It gets easier each time.
Speaking of bias tape, I have found that Wal-Mart sells the basic colors at a much cheaper price than any big box fabric store. In fact, if you are fortunate to have a Wal-Mart with a fabric department, I recommend getting many sewing basics such as interfacing, zippers, thread, snaps and velcro there. Although their fabric selection leaves much to be desired, their prices on the basic necessities can't be beat. While I don't frequent Wal-Mart too often, I will make a special trip just for sewing essentials!
For those of you in Central Florida, the Casselberry Wal-Mart on 436 is a great resource.
Where is your favorite place to buy fabric and sewing supplies? Online or in store? I'd love to hear in the comments.
