How do I participate? One Yard Wonders Sew Along Details
Woohoo, we have take off. This is Week 1 of the One Yard Wonders Sew Along!
Week 1 – Project 1
Framed Tack Board – Page 22
Tracy selected this fabulous print from Sugar Pop by Liz Scott for Moda Fabrics. Materials needed include a picture frame and corkboard.
Week 1 – Project 2
Lined Bookcase
Diana chose to use 3 different fabrics for lining her bookcase. The prints are from Amy Butler’s new Soul Blossoms collection. Materials needed include spray adhesive, double-sided tape, posterboard and a small bookcase.
What fun projects! I’m in need of a tack board and why not use some fun fabric?
Perfect timing! I am in the process of organizing my craft room and I need a new bulletin board with some flair.
love the fabric choices!
The Soul Blossoms looks so nice on the bolt! Very pretty!
I love this! I cant wait to see these!
this is fun. i love that book for teen/tween sewists! we used it in 4H sewing last spring.
Kathy I met you at Dinner with Deb in Houston could you please contact me I have a question. Thanks Beverly Martine
I’ll call you as soon as I get my kids off to school Beverly
I’ve been meaning to cover a tack board for so long – great timing! And I might just try a lined bookcase too
I received this book for Christmas last year and haven’t made a single thing out of it. I look forward to being inspired by your sew along!
This is great. I wonder if my daughter would let me borrow the one i gave her for christmas?
I love this! It’s going to be fun to follow along. I’ve already done the cork board and my children loved it so much I had to do one for each of their rooms. Amy Butler’s new line is gorgeous!
Ah..didn’t realize you had to have the book.. that rules me out then! oh well.. never mind. Still looking forward to see what everyone else is making!
Try your library! I have the book on hold and my son will pick it up tomorrow when he goes to town.
Great fabric choices, looking forward to seeing these projects come together.
Neat!! I love the idea of a sew along. I made the Obi Inspired Hot/Cold pack for 3 people this Christmas, and have another in the works for myself. I can’t wait to see what you do with my project (Newborn Flyaway Jacket), too!
The Newborn Flyaway Jacket is so cute. I have a new niece or nephew arriving this spring and I plan to make the jacket for a gift. If you have pictures of your Christmas gifts please share

I just got this book yesterday, so am excited that it coincides with this sew along! So many projects that I want to make and it will be fun to see what everyone does!
Oh goody! I want to do both of these. The bookcase is going to have to wait though – need to repaint the bookcase and it is too cold to paint in the garage or shop this time of year. The message board and bookcase are both in the new pantry. I’m thinking some Moda Bliss since the walls are a pretty aqua.
I painted the bookcase on the kitchen table after putting down newspaper first. No need to wait. Just do it!
How fun!
I received my first order yesterday–amazingly promptly–and it is wonderful. 2 Denyse Schmidt patterns, some of her new fabric and some sale fabric. My friends were envious!
Maybe I need to invest in that book… I love both of those ideas.
This is a super idea. I had better get the book.
This will be a great preview of this book. I’ve had it on my mental wish list for a while…

I’m so excited!!! These are both projects that I didnt have to buy anything for so that made me super happy! I had everything needed laying around the house!
This is such an awesome book – I’ve used it to teach people how to sew – the projects are (usually) easy and so cute!!
This looks like fun.
I just looked through my whole book last night. There are lots of cool projects in it.
I’m looking forward to seeing what you make.
What a great idea! I have made some projects out of this book, and I’m looking to doing more.
One of the problems I’m having with the book is that sometimes the instructions aren’t very clear, and without diagrams or photos of the process, it’s sometimes challenging to figure out what to do or why.
However, I can’t wait to see the bookcase – I’m thinking of doing that one too, and using the secret storage boxes from here http://www.designspongeonline.com/2010/09/diy-project-brennas-secret-storage-books.html to fill it with my crafty supplies.
