Happy Easter!

Having a well earned break, don't have to go back to work until Tuesday and am enjoying the time off.


I've spent time this weekend making more Japanese Knot Bags, both my mum and daughter wanted one. Mum told me to choose the fabric, while Cassie had her own definite idea of what she wanted. She doesn't like prints only plain. She found a cardigan of mine, first told me it smelt nice and then that she wanted the bag to be the same colour. Just happened that I had the exact colour Onasberg fabric. Then she chose one of my cherished fabrics that I was hoping to make a weekender bag out of, but hadn't bought enough. I think I was more shocked that it was a print, so cut into it with a just a twinge of regret. She also asked if I could make the bag reversable, funnily enough that is what the pattern is for. I made up both bags and was very pleased with them, as were the recipients. I then decided to make one for my sister in the same fabric but in a different colour range, couldn't decide which colour I liked best, navy or purple so I used both. I love the results so much I have to make myself one.

When my husband saw the fourth bag I made he asked me if we will be having a squillion of these bags all around the house, hmm could be LOL.



Sewing has really put me into a good mood, my fingers are tingling to do more. Have been searching the net to find other things to do.
