Today is another Snow Fairy Day and Ginger and Lemon tea… Deja vu
Finished! phew sometimes things take a little longer than anticipated but they are always worth the wait, in my opinion.
It’s another beautiful morning here in the Charente, the sun is not yet up, and the birds are just beginning to stir, I have lit my melt and have my cuppa, what a way to start the day… so let me tell you about the little bag I made yesterday.
I really enjoyed the process of putting this little bag together, admittedly the interfacing I used was way to thick, but it is very padded so hopefully will be robust, may tweak the pattern a little for the next one, and had to do an emergency shop for some different hardware, ie Zip, D Rings and Slider… I have to say these are the things I find hard living in rural france, nothing is readily available, you have to search on line or drive a round trip of at least a couple of hours, not an issue if you have a long time scale but as I am a little impatient that doesn’t always work out well for me, so if anyone out there has a good supply shop for sewing supplies I would be very interested in hearing from you. I will post pictures below, and I have added the bag to my available items, sadly this one will be heading to my daughter in the UK, but I have plenty of fabric to make more if someone would like one, I will also have the option to have just a wrist strap if you do not want a full crossbody strap.
So today I think I may actually get round to making another one of these little bags with different interfacing (the padding) and I have just the right fabric to use for this one, it is a little left over from an old quilt cover that was donated to me, and I think it will make a great phone pouch.
Have a lovely day…
