Parents' Night Out fundraiser

I love using my skills towards a good cause. Our school is having their Parents' Night Out this month and I offered to donate some baskets of goodies. I made a Quilted Clutch basket and a Mom and Me Flirty Apron Basket. In the Quilted Clutch basket, I included:
  • $25 AmazonKindle Giftcards
  • One quilted cover for a kindle
  • One smartphone/blackberry clutch
  • One earbud/bluetooth keychain clutch
  • One makeup clutch with fabric pin
I found the cheapest baskets I could and made a cute little liner for them to jazz up the basket a bit. And then I made a tag listing the basket's contents and value. I hope it will drum up some money for the foundation!
Here are the links to the tutorials I used:
I made up the phone clutch and the quilted cover for the kindle so I need to get on it and get making some tutorials for those!


In the Mom and Me Flirty Apron basket, I made two sets of aprons. Each set has an adult apron with a cute flower pin and one child apron with a cute flower pin. I bagged the sets separately thinking that maybe they can auction them off separately. Again, I found a cheap basket and made a liner that matches the fabrics used in the aprons. These aprons turned out so cute that I'm going to try to get  a tutorial/pattern up soon.
