Gathered Top Curtain

I need curtains for every room in my basement (yeah, it's finally finished).  I really want to make them because I want to pick my own fabric- I've actually purchased the fabric for my boys' room and ordered some for the family room.  Needless to say, I've been searching blogs for cute curtain tutorials.  Found this Gathered Top Curtain from Make it and Love it- I LOVE it!!  SO cute- I love the gathered top... definitely one of my favorites that I've seen. 

30 minute Bed Skirt

I've been wanting to make bed skirts for my boys' beds and I was very excited to find this tutorial for a 30 minute bed skirt from Anna at Noodlehead.  This looks like a sewing project that I could pull off (no top stitching, zippers, bias tape, or even hemming is needed) and I'm happy I get to use my pinking shears that I purchased not too long ago. If you don't need a bedskirt, but you're looking for some other cute sewing projects; go check out Noodlehead.  I love her zippy wallet clutch, but zippers intimidate me.  

Double Cuffed Pillow Case

If you haven't seen the patterns available at You Can Make This, you've got to check them out.  Such cute patterns for sale (love the Double Layer Stripwork Twirl Skirt) and occasionally some freebies like this Double Cuffed Pillow Case.  Wouldn't these be so cute on my bed?

Upholstered Headboard.. just what I need

I am DYING to make this- pretty sure it's on my wishlist for my birthday.  For anyone who has seen my plain bedroom you know that I am in desperate need of a headboard, but lack the funding.  This project is screaming my name!  Check out this tutorial from The Polka Dot Chair.
