It's another By Annie pattern, and once again has terrific instructions, but LOTS of pieces! So I spent a couple hours last night just cutting everything out and labelling with the handy sheet of reference labels in the pattern. I do need to run to Joann's to get some zippers though. I have until Friday to get it done before our trip to the Adirondacks. Yikes!
Another thing I was hoping to get done by then is a skirt. I was blog hopping yesterday-don't you love the bunny trails you end up on sometimes following one link after another? I started with Faeries and Fibres where I am doing this hexie quilt along:
Karen had a link to a cute little project bag that I thought about making:
This tutorial is at the The Zen of Making. Well then I found this cute skirt tutorial there too:
I have such a hard time finding skirts that don't make me look like the side of a house and are not too short. For two yards of fabric I might just try it. I'll let you know if it ends up in the scrap pile or not!
OK, off to Joann's for supplies!
Happy sewing!

Of course she needs a matching carry on bag Mom!! That is really nice that they include labels for the pieces, especially if there are a lot of them. That is a cute skirt! I really like that little project bag too!
ReplyDeleteCute bag. Cute skirt. Busy week for you. I want to hear how that skirt comes out.
ReplyDeleteCan't wait to see the finished project !!
ReplyDeleteLove your hexies so far.
ReplyDeleteThat little sewing kit is so cute. I saw it on Karen's blog too.
