Crafting Totes..

Well I made it through the first week of school, it was quite fun to be back but I can't seem to help bringing my work home with me. So whilst procrastinating from marking essays this afternoon I decided the would make a custom tote bag ordered by Phoebe Alexa Joy Photography who also happens to be my sister.

She chose the fabric herself and it has come up so beautifully I think I should let her choose my fabric more often. I loved the combination so much I made the tote reversible. Will go looking for more fabric this week to stock up the shop.

I'm a bit excited by the results and just wish I had more hours in the day to sew and create forever. I have been researching bag making techniques and look forward to tackling an overnight bag and clutch purses in the future.

Well I have to go finish my marking so I can get ready for a big night of 'so you think you can dance'!

Happy Weekend x
