HELLO AND A NEW BAG!

Oh my, where have the time gone?  Guess it's true for the saying, "Time flies when you're having fun!".  It's been little over a year since my last post.  Family time took precedent over blogging and know everyone will agree.   During my blogging absence my curiosity in photography resurfaced and I've been getting familiar with my camera.  It's amazing how a camera can capture precious moments and in today's digital world, photo editing is a whole new beast in itself. 

My family will be doing a little bit of travel this summer and my daughter's been mentioning for a new bag.  While doing a some errands just a few days ago, we had some time to browse the local fabric discount store.  Having recently watched THE DARK KNIGHT RISES, she saw a few Batman fabrics and after contemplating over a handful of options, she chose a really cute MARVEL COMIC print and carefully picked an interior of blue.  After pre-washing, cutting, ironing,interfacing, and sewing, her bag was ready in a day and she loves it!  Her BFF's also hinted that they'd LUV a bag, too so I have a feeling someone will be busy making a few Christmas handmades for her BFF's.

This bag is from KWIK SEW 3749.  A fairly easy pattern for me which I luv.  We added interior pockets for her itouch and writing utensils.  Looks like she's ready to do some traveling!  And so am I!

Oh, here's a sneak peak of what I'm working on....

Are you traveling this summer?
