Hi Audrey!
If you check out the step that sates "Turn bag inside out and top stitch around entire casing, careful not to catch measuring tape with your needle" and the accompanying photo you'll see that you are stitching through all the layers, creating a casing that snugly holds the measuring tape in place. I hope this helps clarify the tutorial for you! Thanks for stopping by and posting your question!

Hi Diana! So glad you found the tutorial clear and understandable! You're right, these flowers would look lovely in the quilts you linked too! I do have a tutorial posted for making an origami kimonos, you can check it out here: http://americansewingguild.blogspot.com/2012/05/f...
Not sure if it is what you are looking for, but may be worth checking out! :o)

Hi Sherry!

Thanks so much for your kind words!
The pattern is Simplicity 2668 in sizes XXS -L (newborn thru 18 mo). The pattern also includes a jacket and bloomers, but I haven't tried those yet.
I bought the fabric a while back at my local Hancock Fabric store - it was one of the quilting cottons - but they no longer carry it. They currently do have a decent selection of other gray fabrics tho. What size where you thinking of making this in?

Wow, Michelle - thanks so much for your sweet comment!!
5 years ago I never would have guessed this was the style direction she was heading in. It was a little hard for me to to give up my ruffled girlie-girl image of her, but I admire her confidence to be what she wants - At 12 years old I just wanted to look like everyone else, lol!

Hi Amy!

Thanks for stopping by and leaving a comment! So glad that my shorts are inspiring you to try again, you've made my day! :o)
FWIW, I would never consider your shorts horrible, you are way too hard on yourself. That fabric is awesome, but I agree it'd have a better impact on a simpler design - and your applique shirt is a perfect match! Can't wait to see your second version.
I'm your newest follower. :o) I've been perusing your blog and pinning away - keep up the good work. I hope to get back to blogging soon, I got a job - I guess sometimes life just gets in the way? Many thanks for the plug tho!

Hi Aimee,

Too bad we aren't closer, we could trade talents - I managed to kill my watermelon plants before even getting them in the ground!!
We were stationed in San Antonio once upon a time, I really loved living in Texas. :o)
Thanks for stopping by and leaving me some sugar, you made my day!
