apron, aprons, bags, craft, planned projects, sewing

A whole lot of planning and not much doing

Three of my close friends have just had their birthday.  All of them are still waiting on their gifts.  At least I have thought about what I’ll make, even if I haven’t started yet!  For Belinda:

A bag in Amy Butler “Nigella” fabric, using Jodie at Ric-Rac’s excellent one hour bag tutorial (although I do suspect that it is going to take me a little longer than one hour to make).  For Rachael:

A reversible apron (I’m doing view A).  I asked Rachael what she’d like me to make her, and she really, really wanted an apron!  It’s so sweet to see someone so excited about an apron.  And for Di:

Um, a bag.  No pattern or fabric to show you yet.  I’m about to test sew a pattern of Nikki’s,  but haven’t chosen the fabric.  It shouldn’t be too hard with my stash!  And finally:

A messenger bag, for, um, me.  Once I finish sewing all the gifts.  The fabrics (other than the denim) are vintage.
