Summer Sewing Series Challenge #2

Get those machines warmed up - it's time for the second contest in our "Summer Sewing Series"!  Every few weeks we'll challenge you to make up a fast & fun sewing project.  We'll make sure the projects are quick to sew, and can easily be made with fabric we know you already have (admit it, we all have at least a small stash of fabric).  When you're done, all you'll have to do is email us a picture and we'll choose the winner!  Easy peasy lemon squeezy!

For our second project, how about a cute eyeglass case to keep those spectacles safe?

 
 
If you're lucky enough not to wear glasses, stitch one up for a friend!  These were made by our very own Arrow folks, but there are tons of free patterns on the internet if you need one!
 
Now, The Rules:

1. Pick out some cute fabric (it can be recycled from something too), and take a picture of it before you cut it up.

2. Stitch up your eyeglass case.  Remember to put your own spin on it - we love creativity and color!

3. Take a picture of your finished project and email BOTH photos (fabric and finished project) along with your full name and address to rebecca@arrowcabinets.com by Friday, August 23rd at 5 pm Eastern time.

4. The projects will be voted on by Arrow staff, and the winner will be announced here on the blog on Wednesday, August 28th.

Creativity counts!! Please make sure you follow all of the rules!  If you have any questions, please feel free to email us at Rebecca@arrowcabinets.com.
 
We'll be sending the winner one of our awesome Kangaroo Kabinets rolling totes as seen below:
 
 
Good luck everyone!

  9. This was fun, my pile was sky high when I started and then I narrowed it down to just a few fabrics to use. I can't wait till the next little project. And I'm thinking the pillow cases need to be mailed by the 29th to be received by September 6th
