It really is a girl's best friend! :-) I have been giving mine quite a workout
lately, but much of what I'm doing is for gifts, so.... I don't dare show you! ;-)
BUT,
Here is one gift that has been received. So let's look~
This is called the 'Classmate' from Atkinson Designs. I sent it to a friend for her
birthday. This is the third one I've made, but the first one I remembered to get a photo of! :-o
I know! I was so excited to give the others to their intended recipients, I totally forgot.
I was talking to my Mom the other day and she asked if I'd made myself one yet... LOL No. (blush!)
So she made one for me and sent it! :-) Thanks Mom!
Mine is full of stuff, so I didn't take a photo, but I still can if you want to see it. LOL
This is the inside~
Room for all your treasures, whether they are for sewing, hand stitching, going on
vacation or ...? Behind every clear pocket is an open pocket for sliding in a notebook, pattern, etc. :-)
It's a lot of steps, and easy to get yourself confused, but so worth the time it took.
Next time, I will cut as I go, it would be easier to keep myself on track and when I have to step away (for a week) I would know where to pick up again. ;-)
*Disclaimer.. I made this bag for a gift. I bought the pattern. I'm not in any way advertising for Atkinson Designs~ I doubt they even know I made this. I just wanted you to see what I've been doing.
Now I am working on a big ol' pile of string blocks~ I'll be back to show you soon!
Until next time~
Happy Stitchin'!!

That is a beautiful case and a nice gift idea. I still need to try some totes and purses to get used to sewing them.

What a lovely gift to make and receive.
I just bought the supplies to make that very same thing!!! I just have to find the time now. Your's looks great!
Actually - I believe that I have seen yours because I think your mom showed it at guild. And we all OOH'd and AAH'd because it was so pretty. These are great bags. And how wonderful that you and your mom get to share your projects back and forth.
That is so pretty. It would be nice to use to use for traveling.
What a beautiful bag! Lucky recipient and lucky you to receive one from your mom!
What a nice Mom! Looks super handy dandy with all of the pocket space. Happy sewing and enjoy your weekend.
That is lovely. Why do we always make things for gifts and never for ourselves?
That looks like a very handy bag to have. I could see it being very useful on a trip. How nice of your mom to make you one as well!
Thank you, again, Sandie!
The pics here do not do it justice!!! Beautiful fabrics and exquisite work(wo)manship!
Lucky me!
