Happy Fourth of July!  In between eating ice cream and enjoying fireworks (in your stars and stripes apron, of course) here are some fun links for the week:

• Vote on the new logo for the sewing pattern wiki!  And did you know that the wiki is now home to over 30,000 vintage sewing patterns?  Beware its addictive powers!
• It's been a great few weeks for tutorials: first, there's one at Tilly and the Buttons for a quick and easy bow belt.
• Speaking of bows, the Selfish Seamstress has instructions for pants with a bow.  While you're at her site, be sure to check out her post on next month's Burda and clown love.  That's all I'm saying.
•  Last but not least, Gertie has a fantastic tute on using horsehair braid. 

Now go make something go boom!
