Ever since I took a sewing class over 5 years ago, I've been buying fabric and have accumulated a good stash! In that class, I made the black bag below. I'm so proud of it and carry it to work everyday! Of course after this class, I was like, I'm going to buy a sewing machine and make more of these bags! Well, I did buy a sewing machine but I haven't made another of these bags yet. This ever happen to you with a project? LOL! But, I have been getting some use out of the sewing machine, thank goodness! I've made an apron and a few pillowcases. The pillowcases are really fun! A couple of years ago, the local fabric store had a sewing event where individuals were provided fabric and taught how to sew a pillowcase and then the pillowcases were donated to a charity. When I wanted to make one for my son (finished pic below) I had to do a search on YouTube because I forgot a few steps and thankfully I found a few videos using the same technique taught at the fabric store. This is the video I like best (and they have some other great videos too!) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MrYWCma9wgM . But most recently, I made a zippered case and a mini four patch bag which didn't turn out too bad. I'm keeping the projects small for now but hope to work my way up to a larger project such as a quilt. Happy Crafting!
