New Sewing Project

I was walking through Walmart hoping some fabric would catch my eye when I happened across this 1 yard Fabric Cut. As I've stated before I am a beginner at sewing so I figured some pre-cut fabric would make for a great project in my practices. 

My house colors are navy blue, gold/yellow and gray. The walls are gray so this fabric would help pull that gray from the wall into the rest of the space. 

Also awesome is I have some yarn in yellow that I bought previously that is very close to the same color. I have gray as well but it is darker than the gray/green/tan-ish color that is in this fabric. Hopefully I'll be able to make these projects fit together. 

I absolutely love this yarn. It's polyester, super soft. It's from Lion Brand Yarns called Vel-Luxe. Best part is I got it on clearance, though I'm sad the store will no longer be carrying the product. Check it out at www.lionbrand.com. They also have free patterns. 

Another yarn I'm using from the brand is the Mandala yarn which is the typical multicolor yarn in pastel baby colors. I've said before that I have sensitive hands to textures and unfortunately my hands don't care for the material but other than that I love it. 

Happy crafting!
