Look What I Made! Volume 5

Here's your sneak peek at a couple of the things I've been sewing like an animal the last few weeks!

BACKSTORY:  I got a snazzy new Ipad2 a couple of months back.  I take it with me to my son's weekly Speech Therapy appointments & had been carrying it in my arm/hand....I DROPPED it--(Ugh!) and thank goodness it wasn't damaged--ummmm yeah--lesson LEARNED!  I needed a padded case not only for protection if I dropped it, but I wanted to tote it hands free (so there was less of a chance of me dropping it!) and I wanted a strap.  I also needed a pocket to put my stylus and charger in...drum roll please....
TA-DAAAAAHHHH, Here she is!
I LOVE it, it is *PERFECT*!  I choose this cute Alexander Henry sewing print to make it in because it reflects me wonderfully!  It's got a zippered closure so it'll stay snug inside and an adjustable strap so I can make it a cross body bag if I want to instead of a shoulder strap~Yippee!!
The pocket on the front has a cute ruffled trim on it~very girly--cause I'm a true Girly Girl--but it also adds a nice design element, dontcha think?  I hand gathered the ruffle...I don't have a gathering foot on my sewing machine and when I try to use the technique with the basting stitches to ruffle, I don't like the results.
It is so super cute and functional, I can't stand it!  I've gotten sooooooooo many compliments on it at the Speech Therapy Office and requests to make some as well!  Here's a pic of the back:
I like Hardware.  I think it really makes a bag of any kind.  So I put on nickel swivel clasps, hoops and grommets.  It just adds an extra lil' somethin-somethin' to the overall look. 
It is soooo nice to put my Ipad2 in this padded sleeve and throw it on my shoulder so I can walk hands free.  The best part about it is sometimes I use it as a crossbody sling when I'm running to the store/Post Office or Gas Station...instead of putting my Ipad2 in it, I throw in my wallet, keys and phone when I'm making quick trips--it's an excellent "grab n go" carry all.

NEXT BACKSTORY:  I have a stack of bills and misc mailers on my desk.  Along with my International Shipping Customs Sleeves (for all you International customers, that is the plastic sleeve your shipping documents/customs forms are in when you get your package!)  I needed something to put them in so it didn't look like a jumbled mess.  Yes, I could have gone to Office Depot or Staples and bought a metal or paper organizer or bin...but I am a *FABRIC* Girl!!  So naturally, I made a Basket out of fabric!  Here it is with all my stuff inside:

Notice a common theme here?  LOL--Yep, the ruffle trim...I have become somewhat addicted to it here lately--it's just so darn cute!!!!  So I am able to keep all the stuff that was messing up my desk nice and neat inside this cute cupcake basket!
NOW--after I made this, I wanted to pick it up and move it and said to myself..."Self, you should have put handles on this basket"....soooo guess what?????

Yep, I made one with handles...Notice the handles are attached with Nickel Stud Rivets (Hardware again, folks--I love it!)  This one in particular is going into my Handmade Shop on Etsy this weekend with a few other ones I made.  I've got some Fabric Baskets with handles, several Ipad2 Sleeves with adjustable straps and a BRAND NEW PURSE DESIGN all going into my Etsy Handmade shop this weekend!  The new purse design is truly a labor of love that I am UBER excited about! 
Stop by my Handmade shop this weekend to see the new purse design!
I'll probably still post a pic of it here on the blog for ya next week as well~soooo excited!
I may start making tutorials here on the blog for some of the quick n' easy projects that I do--who's interested????
Happy Sewing! ☺

New US Shipping class...

Guess what, ya'll?
If you live in the US, there may be a new shipping rates that will save you $!
(These new rates are US Rates only)
Regional Rate Priority Mail Boxes for US Addresses are now available as a shipping option on hypernoodlefabrics.com
Regional Rate Boxes are still Priority Mail and offer the same shipping delivery times as other Priority Mail products for US addresses (2-3 business days)

The new rate is for between 10.5 to 14 yards of fabric
previously, the rate for anything over 10 yards and up to 26 yards was $11.00 in the regular Flat Rate Priority Mail Box...
now, the Regional Rate Boxes give you a price break for between 10.5 and 14 yards of fabric!
here is a breakdown of the new rate by States:

If you live in TEXAS or LOUISIANA...   $5.25
If you live in MISSISSIPPI, ARKANSAS, ALABAMA, OKLAHOMA or NEW MEXICO=$6.25
If you live in GEORGIA, FLORIDA, TENNESSEE, N CAROLINA or S CAROLINA =$8.00
If you live *almost anywhere else in the US= $9.00

*almost= this rate applies to every other State in the US except OREGON, WASHINGTON, HAWAII, ALASKA, MAINE, VERMONT and NEW HAMPSHIRE.  If you live in 1 of these named 7 States, shipping rates remain the same for 10.5 to 14 yards....

This is a TREMENDOUS Value for shipping on 10.5 to 14 yards of fabric--especially if you live in the South!  Those in TX, LA, MI, AR, AL, OK and NM have a 50% savings on shipping for this amount of fabric--Yippee!!  You can get 4 extra yards shipped for a mere .25 cents or $1.25 respectively!

If you live in GA, FL, TN, NC or SC you can save almost 30% on shipping this amount of fabric with the RR Box~and almost 20% in the other States (outside of the 7 States in the exception list)

If you order 14.5 or more yards, the regular Flat Rate Box rate will apply and is still the same as before at $11.00 for up to 26 yards...which is still a GREAT rate for shipping...If shipping actually went on weight and not on a Flat Rate, it would be upwards of $18.00-$26.00 to ship 14-26 yards of fabric depending on where you live!

If all of this confuses you...no worries!  We've made it easy for you--just add what you need to your cart and when checking out you will see all of the available shipping options that apply to where you live~just check the radio dial button for the one you'd like!

Let me know if ya have any questions--you can email me using the "Contact" link at the top left here on the blog~☺

Never forget...

I was so moved by this quote:
"Grace taught me that happiness and sadness coexist" --Mary Danahy of her daughter Grace who was born after her father, Patrick perished in the attacks on 9-11-01
What a dual meaning...the fact that her daughter's name is Grace is even more poignant~

With my husband being a former Police Officer, my heart swells for all the Officers and Firefighters who lost their lives in the line of duty that day.  I think often about them and all of the nearly 3,000 other innocent people who lost their lives simply because they went to work or were carrying on in their day to day.  To the family and friends of all the innocent victims, I am humbled by your strength, will and courage.  You are forever in my thoughts and prayers and I will never forget...♥
