Getting Crafty

Yup I made this with my own 2 hands - or my hands and a sewing machine! Maybe my middle name is Martha after all!

My sister and I went out for lunch on Saturday and noticed this great quilting/fabric store near by. So in we went and found this cute pattern for purses. We cut out the beautiful fabric for the larger of the two bags - but didn't get any sewing done. I promised to wait to make my bag until we were together again...but I really wanted to play. So I nipped out to Fabricland today and bought a bit-o-fabric and made the smaller version.

I love it love it love it - I am going to make two of the bigger ones(one for each kid) to put toys in for when we travel.

In the beginning
