Well, I sure do love crafting. I am really starting to enjoy sewing, which is quickly becoming one of my 3 favorite hobbies. I didn't really enjoy sewing when I was growing up and I think that is mostly because I found it very annoying and fustrating. Now, I have made some basement curtains (with the help of my mom) who rocks at quilting, and I have made a cover for a magnet board and a cork board. Which is really nice. Here are the befores and afters.
These are the matierals that you will need for each board:
1 yard of fabric
3 yards of ribbon
1 metal piece
1 foam core 2 inches bigger than your metal piece
spray adhisive
duct tape
Here is what I did wrong on both the boards, both involving the ribbons. Cut the ribbon to 3 eighteen inch peices. Then pin them to the right side of the fabric, making sure they are spaced out equally (this is for hanging). Sew! Step 2 is piecing the front and back together (making sure you pin the right sides together. sew! leaving one side open so you can place the board inside the cover. Hand sew the side closed and you will have a completed project:)
Finished product!!
A Happy day is a day spent doing what you Love!
Happy Day!
