i haven't sewn since before christmas
when i made 10 tissue covers,
20 checkbook covers,
2 wallets,
and 70 keychains...
hmmm...wonder why?
but, last night i was bound and determined to make something.
i've felt so lazy lately and as if i haven't done anything.
forget the fact that i'm teaching a class, planning the school carnival and silent auction,
keeping track of three little girls, laundry, and house cleaning.
so, when my girlfriend gave me heather bailey's newest pattern to make a bookbag,
i made a promise: to make the bag by the end of the weekend.
so, needless to say, last night was a late night :)
but meredith was very excited to have a new school bag this morning!
it fits her books and folders perfectly and is sooooo cute!
i used the last of my favorite jennifer paganelli fabric,
i needed to. after a set of drapes, two pillows, two dresses and now a bookbag,
i think it's time.
my goal today?
keep sewing! i'm going to attempt to get some keychains and checkbook covers completed
for my girlfriend's shop.
it's amazing the satisfaction that comes from sewing and completing a project.
i feel accomplished!
