Cutting table continued

Not quite finished, but here's a looked my new cutting table.  I found a board for $3 at the same store that I covered in fabric and place on top. My table is 30 x 60 and currently about inches in height.  I plan to add wheels to it to make it taller and easy to move.  My table has to reside in the corner due to space issues but (when necessary) it can be moved for my cutting and sewing needs.

Cutting table

I decided that I wanted a permanent cutting table so I went to my local Restore. This is what I found.
 
A cabinet that had a former life as men's tie storage. 
I even found a few neckties when I removed the drawer.
The cabinet needs a little work like adding a counter top. I'll posted the finally product later

Neckband case

I've been away from the blog but not from sewing, I've made a few things in the last few months but nothing major.  I decided to log in to show my latest craft, a neckband holder.  I made this because I don't want my neckband to break when I pull it out of my ultra messy purse.

Finished the cape



 I finally finished the cape. It turned out cute, although I'm not sure that I'm a cape wearing kind of person.  
 I made this cell phone pouch for my enormous phone.

Simplicity A1521

My co-worker bought me this pattern LAST year for Christmas and I'm now getting around to making it.  I found the fabric a few days ago at a thrift store for $1.50 and I knew that it would be PERFECT for this cape. I sure hope that I get the stripes lined up correctly since this is my first time working with a plaid.  I'll publish the finished product soon.

Fleece scarf




This is what I've been sewing. I found this scarf while browsing Pinterest.

Elsa Dress finished

Here is my girl in her beloved Elsa dress.  She absolutely loves it!!

Now I have to decide which of my many options to sew next.  My husband would love for me to make his San Franciso fleece pull-over next so I at least need to put it close to the top of the list.
