This is a tutorial on how to patch a T-shirt that got hole on them, either they got caught on a hook or a hole suddenly appeared on your favorite shirt. It is also inexpensive because we will not spend any for the patches. And pretty easy with one step. The whole procedure can be done in 10 minutes max.
Start of by collecting your destroyed T-shirt.
Look for its own tag. Unfortunately for this shirt, none on it.
So look for other shirt with clothe tags with the same color as as your T-shirt, in this case red. If none can be seen, the nearest color is good enough.
Size it up on the whole and remove excess if necessary.
It only have on procedure and that is to back-stitch each clothe tag on each whole.
When you are done it would look fine and unnoticeable. It adds flare to your t-shirt. The closest people would suspect was you were trying to decorate your shirt.
It look like a sculpture of something I cannot figure out of which I saw somewhere, any way this is the Number 8 we will make as an effective bookmark.
We need a tarpaulin size 3.5x1.5 inches.
Fold it lengthwise the smoothen the edges.
Half inch from the bottom cut straight 1/3" before the other side then cut straight up half inch before the top.

A delicate flower on your hair is simple to make and a lot of fun.
Cut 8 inches of a 1.5 inch wide ribbon
Do a running stitch (of small distances) at one end. Then tie both ends of the thread tightly to create the center of the flower.
Rotate the Ribbon as to how you would like your flower look like. For this project, it was overlapped for a quarter only.
Cut the thread longer to replicate a stamen then glue it on a hair clip.
This simple rose flower was done easily with simple steps and few materials. Perfect with small girls who dream to be a princess.
We need a ribbon of a foot long and an inch in width, a glue or glue gun, and a hair clip.
Fold the ribbon each time by 35-40 degrees.
While folding, you need to roll it to form the rose.
While folding and rolling, sew at the base to secure the design.
When you roll the ribbon, do not just roll it all the way. At the third of each roll you make fold it back for 1/4 inch until the end to create the petals as well as to make the rose bloom.
When you are done. The rose flower will look like this.
After which, glue it to a hair clip.
This coin purse have the zipper at the center. So that when you need money just unzip it and open it by pressing opposite edge of the zipper with your palm and fingers for it to open.
For this wallet we need:
1) A cloth or some water proof material like that of backpacks, size 4" x 5".
2) 5" long zipper and its slide.
How to make it is tricky, if you are unable to visualize the procedure, because you have to see the other DIY to understand what I am talking about. (I am sorry for failing to document the procedure, I was caught up in the moment.)
Procedure:
1) Sew the zippers at the 5" sides. On opposite sides.
2) Insert the zipper slide.
3) Turn it inside out and sew both the open sides.
4) Reverse the coin purse to reveal the finish project.
Organize your pens and pencil for easy picking inside the bag. Use a pencil case, or better yet, make your own.

2) Insert the zipper slide.
3) Put on its wrong side and sew the sides.
And we have the finish product. Its that easy and fun.
Totally easy to make. Very simple yet elegant.
We need 2"x2" ribbon
Fold half inches all the way, creating 3 folds on the bottom and four folds on top. Be mindful not to press the folds at the edge and only at the middle.
Sew it in at the bottom to secure the folds.

From the second fold, continue tying it at the middle by using the longer end.
Rotate it until it comes around one time.
Then insert the long end to the middle of the circle you made to tuck it in.
Finish by clipping both ends like so.
To secure the knot tightly, sewn in.
