I have a few irons in the fire at the moment so I thought I’d take stock.
1. The bag pattern
I’m busy revising my bag pattern. Do you remember these?
Well I’ve written a pattern and instructions on how to make them. The red and white one is another I made for my friend Sylvia in the US.
I also sent her a copy of my pattern and she tested it for me. I’m in the process of making the changes she suggested and then it will be available. It’s a simple pattern and even I – the world’s slowest machine sew-er – can make one in a couple of hours.
Here are some photos of the ones that Sylvia made. She used that double-sided, pre-quilted fabric and I think they look great. She made a shorter one and a longer one. The pattern is flexible and it’s really up to you what size you make it.
I like them!!
Ladies they are very fun to make. Munaiba came up with a winner here. What she doesn’t know yet, is I bought some of that wonderful vinyl covered fabric (ON SALE no less) and plan on making some for presents!!! Hmmm, wonder whether she’ll get one or not! teehee!!!
