Hey out there… remember those awesome reversible project bags that some Spiders were knocking out earlier this year? No? Check out Jess’ tutorial. I finally made one for myself :) Jess and I had a little sewing bee over here last night and wound up with two great project bags! Here’s mine:

and the inside:
project bag 2

and the too-cool-for-school bottom:

Thank you Jess for providing hands-on help (although it was really easy once you understand the construction) and a perfectly matched drawstring!

And now, I’ve got a new blog for you guys: KIMMYMADE! Watch this girl–she’s coming out with seriously cute softies and will be opening an etsy shop soon. Her latest project is hands-down the sassiest thing I’ve ever seen made out of recycled sweaters.

I leave you with this–our kaleidescope. Taken from three feet away.

Wowee! And thank you so much for the very kind & humbling shoutout :-) And thank you also so much for tolerating Her Royal Craziness yesterday in the store. I sure hope there are a handful of new teeth coming soon to show for her charming behavior of late.

That pouch is adorable. Love the lady on the scooter, rushing home with her new yarn to knit some new socks, perhaps?

Yay, I love that bag! Here’s to what has been, thus far, our most successful sewing night. Just goes to show, sometimes drinking and sewing do go hand in hand….
