I began with a pretty batik sunflower, part of a bundle I won from Mary, at Quilting Grandma Designs.
Can you guess what I have stashed inside those pockets?
That's better.
For the circles, I ironed freezer paper templates right on the fabric. Easier to rotary cut the fabric that way, and I can re-use them when I make another.
This bag is destined for my SIL. It has a similar style as the jewelry roll I made for her last year, the one on the right with similar bell-style, metal cord stops.
Just One week left to reach your One Monthly Goal!
I finished my September goal, btw, to complete the I-Spy backing, but have not photographed it yet. Perhaps I will join the party and link it up here!
See you soon!!
One lucky participant will also win an I-Spy bundle, custom cut from my stash!
Here it is in-process:
Please visit our OMG sponsors this month, as a way of saying...
Thank you!
I forgot that You WON that Bundle! Glad you could use it for a Bag. Getting my Ppst ready to Link up! I FINISHED my Quilting on my OMG this month. YEA for a GOAL to get my Machine going this month.
ReplyDeleteSuch a cute bag. I think that I will have to check out that tut as I have a friend that you love to have one of those....so would I come to think of it.
ReplyDeleteWonderful, wonderful! I've always wanted to make one. Even purchased a kit from Connecting Threads years ago. It just sits. Maybe you've inspired me, like I have time to start anything new! Well done! XO
ReplyDeleteEek! I love seeing all those pretty aurifil threads in that adorable bag. I made my OMG, I just need to publish my post so that I can link up.
ReplyDeletePretty fun bag!
ReplyDeleteYour thread kit looks great with the rainbow of Aurifil! Thank you for linking to my tutorial.
ReplyDeleteGreat bag and thread. I had to laugh when you said you finished your first bag. I'm having trouble trying to focus on the ONE bag I want to make. ha ha ha
ReplyDeleteHeidi. Your bag definitely looks bigger than mine. I am still working hard at achieving 20 pineapple blocks.... LOL
ReplyDeleteThe bag looks fabulous, Heidi! Your SIL will love it.

A very fun bag! What a fun Christmas gift.
ReplyDeleteLove the bag and the super cute fabric!
ReplyDeleteLoving this bag! One Christmas gift down! XO
ReplyDeleteOh that's a gorgeous bag Heidi - the thread inside will be a perfect pop of colour when she opens the bag - lucky SIL! I love batiks - I have a small collection of them but have only used bits and pieces because I don't want to cut into them and - you know - use them up, LOL! Thank you for posting it to the Ho Ho Ho linky!
ReplyDeleteI keep seeing posts about OMG (which is a pretty darn good+funny name for a linky, LOL) - with Christmas sewing in full swing I should be participating! I'm doing Bag It again this year as well, so I shall see you there also :D
Fun bag--it's going to make someone very happy!
ReplyDeleteThat's a really nice bag. Good luck getting all the bags made.
