~~~~~~~~~~Back To School!~~~~~~~~~~

This week I've gathered a few patterns and tutorials for students. Some of these projects would also be handy for your home office!

Could your preschooler use a nifty nap mat or artist pad holder?

How about making a custom binder cover or zippered pencil case for a student in your life?

Want to create an eco-friendly lunch kit? These insulated lunch totes, sandwich wraps and snack bags will help you cut waste.

Older students and those going off to college will appreciate a sturdy messenger bag, handy padded lap desk or a roommate blocking, sleeping eye mask.

What items do you sew for students?

This digest's member honoree is Madhen for her aromatherapy eye pillows! Wouldn't these make a nice gift for a teacher?


If it's possible, please post pictures of your projects so we can admire your work!
