Just in time for all your homemade Valentine's projects and gifts. If you like to tag your projects with a unique label, my LOVE LABEL PDF is listed and ready to roll. It is so simple to make your own custom labels. Download, print on heat transfer paper, iron onto ribbon or fabric and that's it!

Add your own text with the editable PDF file form fields and the file and you have your own personal and custom tags and labels.

The file comes in original and "mirror image" orientations (for those who have a printer that won't mirror images).

Hello friends, a new tutorial is going up tomorrow morning showing you how to add a knit cuff to pants and sleeves. It really is quite easy and something you can do to those pajama pants you've been making. You can also transform a pair of sweatpants into joggers. I hope you find it helpful. :)
