A bag for April

So it's June and it's the beginning of our birthday 'season'.  Time to get sewing.   First is some thing for a 9 year old neice.... uummm... shoulder bag???    So borrowing a pattern from Karen, shrunk it so it's more child size and started cutting.

Using an old pair of jeans and some cute fabric from the old stash, the machine and the grey matter had a good work out (this was my first attempt at a bag), as I had no instructions on how to put it together!!  eeekkk....

After my first attempt, I cracked out the big guns (over locker!) and made another four!!





April's bag

the flower will be replaced... just working on that

The 'A' was purchased from the olive tree markets - Newcastle
