RE: #needleworkmonday :: From a Picnic Mat to a Grocery Bag

in NeedleWorkMonday5 years ago

Et tu, Brute? You also caught the bag-bug (sorry fo all these puns, its very warm here and my brain is on high duty)? I feel a bit under pressure after seeing so many beautiful bags, to finally learn to make one myself.
I love your idea to use the durable and water-repellent picnic sheet, very clever as my cotton bags always get soggy when I go shopping in the rain. And even better your sewing machine did not give up (I think I remember a post in the last days where you again had some problems with the mashine?)

Sort:  

My machine is quite sensitive these days and every now and then, I need to give it some TLC, i.e. sew very slowly and the moment it starts to choke, I stop. I remember you sewing some bags too! Or was it a pouch. But you are the lady for dresses, coats, blouses and skirts!! :)
The picnic sheet is really cool I think. It holds its shape and it is easy to wash and wipe. I am really liking it so far :)
