Scrunchies Golore

Everyone loves scrunchies!  A good scrunchie simply make my messy hair look good without any effort. I wear a scrunchie every day.

I have been enjoying sewing lots of scrunchies lately.  A lot of people think scrunchies are coming back into fashion. 

I do know that they have always been popular and never been away.  I sell ready made scrunchies on my Etsy shop and they sell well.

Scrunchies take about thirty minutes to make.  Bon Couture Designs have paper or PDF patterns for scrunchies and headbands for sale.  

Pattern Hack

I really enjoy making a flat zipper case.  I have made a lot over the year to sell at craft fairs.

So it was one of the first patterns written for Bon Couture Designs.  At Bon Couture Designs, we have decided that we need to make some new samples for our social media platforms.

I made this smaller zipper case to keep all my drawing pens safe when I am out and about and to take away to France in the summer.  I love to do quick sketches of places, floral and beach inspirational things when I am on holiday.  It is a keepsake memory book.  

I saw something similar to this 'pattern hack' on Instagram.  It was a ten minute make.  I will be making some more as I think they would make a lovely gift combined with a note book/diary.

My beautiful daughter is a seamstress too.  It is not surprising as my children both have grown up with me constantly sewing both domestic items such as curtains and clothes as well as creative pleasure such bags and quilts.

We decided last summer that we would work together designing and writing up some off our designs.  We both love sewing.
