Nonetheless I wanted to catch up in the blog world before I disappear for a quick holiday tomorrow, and post a quick picture of my latest bag adventure. Made from a Laura Ashley odds bin find, I put this together to hold all my other bits of fabric. Increasing the dimensions of earlier attempts, and adapting a little for the fact that this is made from thick upholstery fabric, this was a bit of a trial and error attempt but I feel it has come out fairly well. I still need to practise on making my lines a little less wonky, but hopefully practice will make perfect. I am especially proud of this bag's special feature, which is the flower made from my exciting find of a roll of vintage bus tickets. I love the little "go by bus" logo printed on the back!
Thinking about my word for the year, rediscover, I am happy to think that tomorrow I'm off to sunnier climes to practice my sailing skills. Please keep your fingers crossed for sunshine for me! Wishing you a happy Easter.
