I feel like everything was out of wack when Andy was away in Ireland and the UK. No crafting was taking place, I was lazy (one evening getting home at 5.30pm and not leaving the couch all night!) and I hardly cooked dinner. On the upside I did start walking after school.
Anyway this weekend I made up for it and did some sewing, played in the garden and did a spot of cooking.
I found a pattern for a shoulder bag online and have been wanting to make it for a while now. I purchased some really funky fabric a while back from Spotlight and it made me want to make it even more.
I am not very good at following instructions so ended up following two patterns and looked more at the pictures then the written instructions.
I am really happy with the way it turned out.
There is a pocket at the back, perfect for my cellphone and keys (bit hard to see)...
I sewed a few buttons on the front to break the colour and give it a bit of detail...
And it is fully lined...
I also whipped up a wheat bag. I put some dried lavender inside it and it smells amazing!!!
Next on the craft to do list,
- Made a tunic dress.
- Begin making up a few scrapbook style recipe books for gifts.
- Make up a few zip purses for gifts.
