Bags that I will never make, but maybe you will?

I was just looking over some internet sites on how to make bags. I have never made one, I started making one but my teacher got bored of helping me and now it's half finished sitting in my closet.

I was hoping that I'd win a new bag in the sewmamasew giveaways but since I didn't it seems like a perfect opportunity to figure out how to make one myself. YAY!

Anyways here are some bags I definantly will not be making.

The Lean Cuisine Bag: http://www.craftbits.com/project/lean-cuisine-box-bag

The Seat Belt Bag: http://twofoos.com/index.php/crafts-2/seat-belt-purse/

The Kool-Aid Purse: http://henriettashandbags.com/koolaid-purse.html
I have seen these sold in a store near me, and I've seen people with them, so if you like them then good for you. It's not my style though.

The Map Purse: http://www.sonyastyle.com/sections/wear/Map_Purse
I think this one is kind of neat, but I am still not going to make it because I'd be afraid it would rip too easily, plus I tend to overload my bags.

On another note if anyone has a great (super easy) purse/tote tutorial let me know please. I need something that caters to my stash being made up primarily of fat quarters and scraps of fabric.

Moose

This is my Moose. He's having a lazy saturday today. That look is the "Do I really have to get up" look.

Oh and my floor.... well I have to put down new flooring but it hasn't happened yet.

Newest Project:

1930s prints

Guess what it is? The tiny little blocks and pieces took forever to cut out. The pattern called for black, but I don't have any and didn't feel like shlepping my way out to the quilt shop to get some, so I am just using..... more white!

Oh and todays music du jour is something I found last night that I kinda thought was nice.



Hope you enjoy it. It's kinda funky. It's Morticia by Combustible Edison
It reminds me of 70's music.

Happy Saturday.

I find your blog most interesting, my dear friend. Moose reminds me of my little girl, Muffin. Love our pets, don't we? Thank you for sharing. Happy Quilting!

Thanks Pat. I do love my Moose. He's big but cuddly.
