Introduction

Welcome to my channel - Soul Crafty Teacher! My name is Alicia, and I am so excited to share with you some crafting projects that you can sell in your Etsy shop or locally. In this video, I will be demonstrating how to make various crafts using different machines. From sewing machines to sergers, cricket to silhouette, and even a white toner printer, we will explore the versatility of these tools. So, without further ado, let's dive into the world of crafting!

1. Making a T-Dress from Ellie and Mack

One of the first crafts we will be creating is a T-Dress from Ellie and Mack. This dress is simple yet stylish, and perfect for those who want to try their hand at sewing. With only five pieces and step-by-step instructions, it's a great project for beginners. To begin, you will need to put the right sides of the bodice and back pieces together and clip them. Then, take it to the serger to sew the pieces together. Once the dress is assembled, you can choose to hem the sleeves and bottom if desired. The best part is that the knit fabric used for this dress doesn't fray, making it an easy and hassle-free project.

2. Creating a Scrunchie

Next up, let's make a trendy scrunchie! Scrunchies are a popular accessory that can be easily personalized and customized. To start, fold the fabric and stuff it like a burrito, giving it a full and fluffy appearance. Use a pumpkin to shape the scrunchie and secure it in place. Whether you keep it for yourself or gift it to someone special, scrunchies are a stylish accessory that everyone will love.

3. Designing Mommy and Me or Mommy and Minnie Shirts

Now, let's move on to creating matching shirts for mommies and their little ones. Using a white toner printer, we can easily transfer designs onto plain shirts. Simply find the center point of the shirt, position the design, and use a heat press to transfer the image. In a matter of seconds, you'll have adorable matching shirts that celebrate the bond between moms and their children or even Disney-loving moms and their little Minnies.

4. Making a Mom Key Fob

If you're looking for a unique and stylish accessory, a mom key fob is the perfect project. With a 90s vibe, these key fobs are practical and fashionable. Using an embroidery machine like the PE 770, you can personalize the design and create a key fob that stands out. Add some finishing touches by poking a hole and attaching a chain. Moms will love having a functional and stylish keychain that shows off their mom pride.

5. Designing a Onesie with "I Love Mom" Print

For new moms or those who simply want to express their love for their mothers, a custom onesie with an "I Love Mom" print is an ideal gift. Using a heat press and quality materials, you can easily create a onesie that is both adorable and sentimental. Weed the design, position it on the onesie, and press it using the heat press. Once the final piece is removed, you'll have a onesie that proudly displays the love between a mother and her baby.

6. Applique Project: "Blessed Mom" Shirt

Applique projects are a great way to add texture and dimension to your crafts. In this case, we will be making a "Blessed Mom" shirt using a vibrant fabric for the applique. Begin by setting up your shirt and placing the fabric in the desired position. Then, using a coma 20 needle machine like the MT 2001 8S, stitch the design onto the shirt. With the right combination of colors and fabrics, you'll have a beautiful shirt that showcases your motherly blessings.

7. Sublimation Print: Flag Design

Sublimation printing allows you to transfer vibrant, high-quality prints onto different materials. In this project, we will be creating a flag design using sublimation. With a polyester fabric and sublimation paper, you can achieve stunning and durable results. Place the fabric and design in a heat press, making sure to protect the zippers from heat damage. After pressing, you'll be left with a flag that boasts vibrant colors and intricate details.

8. Crafting a "Mom Boss Wife" Sign

Looking for a craft that celebrates all the roles a mom plays? Say no more! With just a few materials, you can create a "Mom Boss Wife" sign that showcases the multitasking superpower of mothers. Use transfer tape to adhere the design onto the wood plank, creating a clean and professional look. This versatile sign can be used as a wall decor or as a thoughtful gift for super moms in your life.
