A busy week or two

Well, I finished the bag off on the Thursday night, and took it straight out Friday with me to a work conference! It is so light, as I didn't use vinyl on this one. I didn't have any hardware for the strap to make it adjustable, and this might help with the weight, too. It's just lovely!


I fell a bit in love with the fabric, and even checked the selvedge for the name!
So Saturday I made these 2 bags, Large Slouch pattern, to be given to friends as nappy bags! I can't wait to make one of these in denim for me....


The annual first-day-of-school shot had to be indoors this year, as it was raining that morning. Still working out the self timer teehee (the kid doesn't like this one, I do!)



And lastly, a little catch up with some crafty friends on Sunday. They were supposed to take some free fabric, hmm, I've still got a big pile left for the oppy! Cam gave Little Miss and I belated Xmas pressies (naughty girl!). I love my phone cover...


The work phone (Nokia) fits perfectly in the back pocket, waiting to be grown
 up teehee.....

 


And the kid scored this fantastic Nintendo DSi cover, fits like a glove and padded to perfection (as we found out when she immediately dropped it! Klutz!)

 

Let's see if it can get any busier next week!!

Just check out those gorgeous bags! Love all of them (I am especially partial to the large slouch myself - planning on making another one for me soon). And what a great photo of your schoolgirl!
