Because there can never be too many bags...

A friend asked me to make a bag for her. She gave me complete liberty and said she trusted me... that made me very nervous, style is something that everyone has a different opinion on, and I don't want to make anyone unhappy. But having free range at the fabric store was very fun. I dreamed and plotted out a million projects with other fabrics until I can't upon this one that just screamed make me into a bag, and I thought maybe just maybe, the little bit that I know Maren, that this might fit her personality. I spent last night and tonight working on this and just finished and had to blog about it because I love this fabric. I may have to go get more so I can make myself one, I just hope Maren likes it. :o/ Still nervous about that.

This is what I'm going to have to celebrate the cuteness of this fabric! Mmm... it's the only candy I can find that I can have... and it is so so yummy... although I am afraid I'll find something else in it that I can't have... but shh... for now I'm just going to enjoy it and be happy. Cyn (lil' sis) picked this up for me ... I think she's trying to make me fat... actually I'm convinced of it... I have no self control when it comes to sweets in the house when I'm pregnant... unless of course they are poison to me... and she's always getting them... I should really just convince myself I'm allergic to every kind of sugar, I'm sure I would appreciate it later on.

And then there is this bag, which is a monster, it is so thick!! I broke so many needles trying to figure this bag out, but I loved every minute of it. It's super durable, although the stitching across the top is far from straight... my machine couldn't handle it's girth and refused to sew straight... very irritating, but at least it managed to get the job done. I have to give it that much credit. :o) Annie picked out her fabric and we came up with this three-tone front because she wanted to see all the colors on the outside, so that was fun. I forgot to take a picture so I had to borrow this from her blog... she is so nice to boost my self esteem :o)
And one more bag that my lil sis asked me to make for her sister in law back in OctoberAnd another one that for some reason I only have a picture of the inside... kids must be playing on the computer too much.

I just love these projects, they are so fun!
