Making things for me! Part 3

Sleeping is my favorite! And what better way to guarantee some Z's on an airplane than with an eye mask? For this project, I got some SUPER soft brown material (usually used for baby blankets) and cut out an eye mask shape. I literally guessed on the whole thing, and it was a breeze. No pattern needed! I cut a piece of white 1/4" elastic band and started to sew wrong sides together, while attaching the band on either end. I left a little opening and turned it inside out, stitching together the final opening. And viola! An eye mask. It's so soft and comfy and completely blocks light. Plus, it's way cuter than those lame one's with the eyes drawn on . . . I'm going to be cute even while asleep.
