Easter Craft

Hi everyone!  Jessica the Sewing Rabbit here. I am so happy to be back again showing you a quick and fun sewing tutorial to help you get ready for Spring!

Burlap is one of my favorite textiles to work with. There is something so fun about the texture of this fabulous fabric! Pair that with one of this season’s hottest trends – metallics, and you have a winning combination.

I simply adore these burlap and metallic totes! They are just whats needed to help lift the winter duldrums. Take them with you to the Farmer’s Market to stock up on your fruits and veggies, and when the weather gets warmer, they will be perfect for hitting the beach. The sand will fall right through the tiny holes in the burlap. Making them awesome beach bags!
