Sewing!

SE just asked me a question about sewing today and started off by saying, "I don't know when the last time was that you sewed...."  Well, it was just last night.  Glenn went to Sacramento for a conference & Jo had a sleepover.  So I stayed home & did some sewing, crocheting, & played with PSE.  (BTW, I sent the Scripture photos to Walgreens & picked them up this morning and they look GREAT even printed!)  Here's what I made:Jo has been wanting a fabric lunch bag for a while now.  She keeps showing me her favorites on Etsy.  I bought this fabric last year at the thrift store & have been keeping it and a few others with retro patterns in my stash for projects like this.

I used some velcro with sticky back, just 'cause that's what I had.  But my needle won't go through it so I may pull it off & replace with a piece of elastic & button.  If you'd like to make one, here's the pattern I used.  This was a FREE project for me.  So we'll save a little money and some trees!
There are also a lot of fabric snack & sandwich bags on Etsy.  Look at this seller.  I may try some little bags, too, for her.  Stay tuned!

I have several cut out from a pattern that I bought with my mom this past summer. I just need to sew them together. Yours turned out cute.

This is SO cute! I bet the ones you made out of the jeans legs are really cute, too!
