                                                          Bags number 2 and 3
On track and pleased with myself,today was showery so I could sew all day and not feel guilty about the garden that Bob just made me and waiting to have the Iris and Agapanthas and Pig face planted.

So Sundays bag,is a fabric I loved,when I saw it in the shop I thought it was very Parisian and so I bought the fabric and then did the embroidering to match..I do not know what you would use this bag for maybe it is a version of a pillow bag anyway girls like I said last blog anyone can have these patterns I am happy to post them off wherever you are,as I make items I am not keeping scraps or anything as I am decluttering lol..


I have never used orange colours before as I am a shabby chic taste and it was a nice change.


As you can see by the back the fabric is lovely,if Karen from Tilly Rose reads this I did save the little off cuts of this fabric as I thought one day you might like it.



This is Mondays bag, my gorgeous friend margy had a birthday over the weekend so i am taking her to afternoon tea tomorrow, so therefor had to make Mondays bag today so that I do not slip behind.


It is a little long narrow bag made me think it would be a nice Bible bag or just a slip down the street and hold the phone,wallett and sunnies.

Well I have to get going we are being given 2 Guinea Fowls the catch is just that we have to catch them,lol alos have to get my Tuesday bag making items ready,can't slip behind now I am on a roll!! It certainly helps that I have all the embroidering done.
Have a beautiful day full of smiles and wonderous things.

  2. Carole - I have had a bit of experience way back for trying to catch Guinea fowl. When you're trying to get them in at night they have this endearing habit of flying up to the highest branches they can find! Glad you've taken time out to do all that lovely craft you do.
