It's Done


It's done. For the next one, I'll get some really heavy interfacing so it will hold it's shape better. I might get some stiffening for the bottom too. I have some plastic grid but it was too short. I did use the magnetic snaps and they are a snap to use!

Christmas Bag


Since I scored a huge piece of Christmas fabric at the thrift shop last week, and I didn't feel like doing anything complicated today, I started this Christmas bag. The red is the lining which is not put in yet. Before I sew it in I have to decide a couple of things. First, one long strap or two handles? Second, what kind of closing? I have magentic snaps which could be at the top or on a flap. If a flap, what shape? I could do a zipper but I have been wanting to try those snaps I got awhile ago. Third, should the handles be poinsettia or red? I have enough fabric to make a dozen of these bags or a lot of shopping bags so the decision is not crucial.
