30 days of sewing with Art Gallery Fabrics

Fabric Tuesday will be back next week, we have some special Art Gallery Fabrics projects to share:

Megan and I were lucky enough to be selected for "30 days of sewing with AGF" 

First, Heather's TeePee! (and you don't want to miss Megan's Sleeping Bag, scroll down)  


What do you think? I am so happy about it! I found a tutorial on Pinterest, and mixed it up a bit, then went for it. It wasn't "hard" but it was time consuming, as I pieced all the panels. 


Do you think he loves it?

Since I wanted the TeePee for this little man, I wanted something a boy would love, but his sister could play in as well.  So I went with April Rhodes "Bound" collection. Love! Urban, southwestern, aztec vibe. Fabulous!


All the panels are pieced differently, with several prints of the Bound line. 


I had to make the teepee taller for this tall guy. He can stand inside, and fits him and his sister. They have already been reading and playing on tablets inside. He wants to sleep in it!



I added these little ties to the door, to tie it shut, and also added some to tie it open.


The poles are drilled through and tied tight with a small rope, covered by this more rustic/decorative rope. 



Hope you like this teepee as much as we do!

Hi there! Megan here!  I genuinely love Art Gallery Fabrics so I was really happy to collaborate! 

 My two older sons have Sleeping Bags I made them already, with their names and all.  A few months ago we pulled them out while we were watching a movie together.  I could tell she was genuinely offended and a blanket and pillow were not the same!




I appliqued her name and added the sweet lace detail, she's my only girl so I love getting to be so girly!



It took some time to narrow down but I finally decided on Anna Elise by Bari J.   The horses, bunnies, floral guitars and other pretty florals are over the top sweet and feminine.


She was pointing at each horse saying "Ride it...ride it...ride it..."


Planning on a movie night tomorrow, she will be thrilled to join the group with her own sleeping bag!
