That is too cute, Triss! :good2:

I am sure Mrs. Fay is going to appreciate it...

I sure hope so, she is an awesome teacher and both Lys and Jonny have thrived under her teaching.

She did like it... I made her cry though.  We sure are going to miss her over the next couple of months.

Finished up Lys' bag... it is made from a jean skirt so it was just a few stitches and snips to make it work.  I added a patch of flannel to give it some character.  Still needs a couple of more washings to really make it fray but she wants to use it tomorrow.

That is cute and something like I want to do with my 'pant tops' I'm saving. Only I'm going to tack them all together for an over the door storage thing.

I end up using the cute pockets for other things but not a door hanger though it is a good idea and one I am sure I will use in the future... we go through a lot of jeans in a year here.

Nope, no homework this weekend... cannot concentrate on it.

I just wanted to post this here as well since it is a bag... should have done that from the beginning.

But we need a new general sewing thread open as well so all is well. Besides, it is worth seeing twice!

Thanks Tina.  I am laying out my next bag.  I need to pick up some material to finish off the very first one I started as well.  I also want to get some ribbon so I can try a couple of Jessica's bags.  Rolling along here.

I managed to get a lot accomplished today and tonight.  I sewed up 8 of Jessica's project bags but I could not finish them because I forgot to pick up the ribbon tonight.  I also just finished the final layouts (lining, bottoms, and interfacing) for 2 shopping bags.  I am hoping to have them all finished tomorrow.  I think after these I am going to switch it up and do a jean bag.

They look great, Triss!! How did it go using a knitting needle to put the ribbons through?

I used a yarn needle to pull them through and it worked out perfectly!  I did not have any problems at all because the yarn needle is larger and plastic, it slid right through.
