It’s time to face the facts, my darling daughter is finishing up Driver’s Ed and will be receiving her driver’s license in a few days …..ouch……. I know.
I want to surprise her with something special and after running across this great tutorial on how to make a Fabric Key Chain from the Idea Room, I knew I had to make one!
{I did say one. Right?}
I knew I had enough scrap fabric and ribbon to make one, I just needed to find the hook. I found this one at Hobby Lobby.
Using two different fabrics requires a different threat in the bobbin. Notice black on the top and the lime green on bottom.
At the last minute I decided to add one more layer by glue on the pink poke~a~dot ribbon. {I used fabric tack glue}
I love the way this fabric key chain turned out!
And it was sooooo easy!!!! I just want to make a 100 of them. {if I only had the time} I will definitely be making one for myself….. maybe one for fall, one for Christmas, one for Valentine’s Day, one for Spring!??!?!?!?! Just LOVE them.
Did I mention how easy they were to make? {it took longer for me to photograph, upload and edit, and to write this post!}
One last thing……
I had a few of readers had asked about the Camera Bag that my mother made my daughter
She purchased a pattern from an individual over at Etsy. Click here to find the Camera Bag Pattern. You can see more photos of the Camera Bag HERE.



















oooh, I love the idea of having a different key chain for each season (or mood!). thanks for sharing, I am definitely going to try this!
ReplyDeleteLove it, and will be looking for those key fobs. What a great little gift to give.
ReplyDeleteI bought one off Etsy a couple of years ago & still love it! I thought it probably wasn't too hard to make, but I really don't know how to sew very well! I hope you have more fun making a bunch of them ~ they're also a great gift idea. I'm sure your daughter will love it! What a great gift for a new driver!
ReplyDeleteLovin' it. Can you believe that we have children old enough to drive and with both of us still so young...LOL
ReplyDeleteYikes, and here I thought starting Kindergarten was a scary thought:)
ReplyDeleteWhat a cute key chain.
