Here's my newly made clothes peg holder, complete with ruffles and mismatched fabrics. I found the idea in Burdastyle magazine.

I LOVE that mag! My only gripe-I can't follow the pattern lines they print on the fold out patterns. There are ...a MILLION different lines in all different colors, going every which way.

If I like a make in the mag enough, I just buy the pattern online. Anyone have a method for following these patterns in the magazine- I'd love to hear it!

I didn't use a pattern, it's an easy enough project to just draw out yourself. I added the bow and button, and made my opening close more on the sides. I found it gaped open too much for my liking, so I just stitched the ends up a bit. ♥

If you haven't heard of Burdastyle you will love it! It's a German sewing magazine, printed in English as well as other languages. Though it can be difficult to find, it's worth a "cozy up" to your nearest newsstand proprietor. I order this and Paris Vogue through my go-to source in New Market.

These are my treats every month to myself.
