Ups and Downs – Vintage and new

A busy week, but found some sewing time.

I worked on some vintage fabrics. Working with the found fabrics takes more time, more design, more math, more creating. I had some gifted children’s aprons with embroidery and thought they would make good children’s book bags. No patterns to be found. I spent a good chunk of time and thinking – but things did not work out to a finished project. I have my first UFO’s and will come back to them on another day and try to get them to completion into something.

So I needed some success. I decided to cut up some small fabric sections and some of the impulse fabric I had and make patchwork panels for a bag. I had already made some bias tape for handles. Things went well in piecing. I may try some FMQ on this one – not sure yet.

But it looks like a SW sunset inspired bag is on the way to being completed.
