sewing like crazy


I have been on a sewing high since I finished the Elsa dress project. I have started making purses and cup cozies. As I perfect my technique I have been giving my friends and family my projects. I am having so much fun mixing patterns and colors. If you would like instructions on how I make these I will be posting a tutorial as soon as I remember. It usually takes me 2 1/2 hours start to finish to make one bag now that I have my technique down. If I am making multiple purses I will spend one evening making the outer shells and sewing in the heavy interface and the next night I will sew the inside pockets and zipper pockets. Here is my list of work to date:


This is my favorite purse!!! I loved it so much I couldn't part with this one.

I made this one for Bunco gift, included two cup cozies around 2 reusable cups






First bag with ribbon border


Mikey bag for my friend who LOVES all things Disney
fun chevron pattern with butterfly lining shown in the next picture

I finished two more bags over the weekend



These are for the reusable Starbucks cups so you no longer have to remember to grab extra cardboard ones and these are super easy to wash and go. I like to use a different patter on each side so it can fit your mood for the day.
