Luggage Tags

If you read my previous post, I asked you to guess what I was making for my sister and her family as they get ready to travel out of the country... and here it is - Luggage Tags!!

(Click on image for larger view.)

I had a lot of fun making these, but also got frustrated working with the vinyl. My sewing machine is not fancy and does not work well with vinyl. It continually got stuck on the vinyl... So, to remedy my issue, I cut wax paper and placed it between the sewing foot and the vinyl... and also ended up using my mom's Elna sewing machine. Between the two of these helps, I was able to finish all 16 luggage tags in time for Christmas.

Having matching luggage tags will help while traveling with 4 children and trying to find so many pieces of luggage.

Find the tutorial to make these over at SkipToMyLou and let me know if you make your own. Be sure to find these and more available in other fabrics over at my store SewWhatSteph! I'll be adding more soon.
