Erin's Bag (6/29/05) & Batik Bag (12/15/07)

I put together this bag back in June of '05.  I had purchased the kit at a large quilting expo, but later ended up actually going to the store that made up the kits, which is down in the Columbus (OH) area.  I had the kit for awhile before attempting to make it.  At the time I didn't really feel like my sewing skills were very good - but I started to gain a little more confidence after the way this bag turned out.





















A couple of years later I purchased another kit, a little smaller this time, to make a bag for my mother-in-law to use for her stitching stuff.

Gift Bags (12/2006)

My look back project for today are the gift bags that I made back in '06 for Christmas.  Every member of the immediate family got one.  I had gotten some fat quarters on sale the summer before ... part of a sale that a shop was having, with all FQ's marked down to $1 each.  So I used those to make the gift bags.  I never considered myself very good at sewing until that project came along, and I seemed to make them pretty good ... I was proud of the way they turned out.
