new bag

front of bag or do I make something else?

Smut's Birthday

Holidays for two weeks, at last time to do some sewing.  Having your husband taking the same time off has lead to a bit of stand off, as we both want to do different things.  BUT I'm sure we will make a compromise and do something Robbyish tomorrow.
For now though I have finished Smut's bag for her birthday and we are going to celebrate the day at a winery on the weekend.  I have so many bags in progress and completed that the time has come to see if I can do some income generating to recoup some of the outlay of materials.  This addiction is a filling the house with fabric and creations.
So now I have finished my friend Smuts bag - I have some ideas... I love pleats so will start looking on how to do smaller ones - I have found a skirt in a second hand shop that has some pleats and big eyes with a ribbon threaded through it, so my next challenge will be to recycle skirts, cargo's into shoulder bags.
