Sweet Pea Bag.............

My 2bsil came out last week and needed help with this bag................she did an excellent job.............I worked out the directions but she wouldn't have been able to as some of the directions weren't so good.......one part missing..........it is made from 4 fat quarters and 60cms of fabric.......great size finished.......the colours don't show so well in this photo but it is purple/mauves, green and cream.......while she made this bag I cleaned some of my sewing area...........got some more clear boxes and organised projects
etc.........found the top of a couple of tables.....

....(stop lol Farmyard Crafts)

(sweet pea bag)

2bsil has hardly sewn before - you may remember she made a simple bag with
me early this year.........she has done another one of those on her own and
some mending but that is it............well done............can't wait til
the next sewing day...........

Take Care til next time..............

Hi Chooky...that's a pretty bag and the friendship is gorgeous.

I've got a "fettish" for bags, can't get enough of them and; with supermarkets and the big corporate stores cutting out the plastic shopping bags we're gonna need them.

It's good to be home...missed my crafting and my crafting friends.
Big Hugs..Judith

The bag is beautiful and looks like just the right size. Sounds like a fun day even if you were cleaning.
