Sleeping bags! What fun to make!


My Swap group recently had a sleeping bag swap and it was inspired by some fantastic free tutorials.
I have not attempted a sleeping bag with a zipper yet but I love how easy these were to make and even a new sewer can make a sleeping bag to be proud of.

I used the tutorial from http://www.100directions.com/make-a-doll-sleeping-bag-with-laura-kelly-fabric/
I am so thrilled with how it turned out and I hope my partner will be as well! I made mine a bit longer and wider then the tutorial and am happy with the result!

If you are planning to make your own dolly sleeping bags for camping or sleep overs I recommend 100.directions.com  Tutorial   Click here for website and Tutorial

  1. These are adorable. I can picture girls taking them along to sleepovers so their dolls can be part of the fun too. =)

  2. Me too! My niece Laura loves to play with the sleeping bag, she even helped me make one for her friend for her birthday!

  3. Aside from a tent, the sleeping bag is probably the item that most people think of when they think of camping. To some, a sleeping bag is a sleeping bag; but choosing the right bag can make your camping or backpacking trip more enjoyable.
