Here is my latest Dollar Tree flip! It’s a water resistant wet bag made for less than $5! Materials List: 2 Large Size Dish Drying Mats 1 Underbed Storage Bag 1 Fat Quarter This is a very beginner friendly project but if the lining stresses you out - just use fabric instead of the plastic bag fabric and make a regular bag instead! I believe in you and I am SO proud of those of you who have dusted off your sewing machines and tried something new! Keep up the good work! #sewingdiy #dollartreediy #

A lot of you have told me that your Dollar Tree only carries the boring, plain dish drying mats. Have no fear! I have a solution for that! This video is Part 1 of a two part series. In Part 1, I will be making a Patchwork Placemat out of a Dollar Tree dish drying mat and some fabric scraps. Just wait until you see what it turns into! This project is extremely beginner friendly and turns out cute EVERY. SINGLE. TIME! #patchwork #placemat #sewing #quiltingforbeginners #sewingtutorial #learntosew #

My latest YouTube tutorial shows you how to make a “Kindness Bag”. This is a zippered dish drying mat pouch with an attached wristlet. Then you stuff it with toiletries and snacks and keep it in your car to hand out to someone in need. A beginner friendly project with a healthy dose of kindness packed into it.

I made this bag using 1 dish mat, 1 fat quarter and some leftover reflective webbing. All for under $8 total! My son is going to be so excited to carry this on Halloween! Would also make a lovely gift basket packed with Halloween treats for a neighbor or friend! #sewingideas #sewingtutorial #sewingforbeginners #learntosew #trickortreatbag #hobbies #sewingprojects #halloween2024 #crafting #sewingtips #sewingmachine #dishmat | She Sews Seams
