From a scrap to a bag

I have done some serious cleaning and sorting on my fabric stash. It (the stash and whole process, actually) was bigger than I have wanted to admit, and I realized that I need to get rid of some.

I thought it would be easier to start the binning with the smallest scraps but heavens! how difficult it was. I just kept making nice piles with reds, blues, whites when it hit me: A scrap bag! I´ll use all (read: some) of these to make bags! Alone they´re too little but together... Just perfect.

Now I have piles of whites & blues, yellows & oranges, browns & whites waiting to be sewn. Sigh. How did I fool myself this bad again?

Happy Sunday!

M-things made me happy today

An another great day. Started with Miss Marple and a huge cup of coffee. A day off - no work, just things I wanted to do.

I got some important sewing done: two pretty pillowcases with Moomins for a little guy, who´s about to get his first room soon. There was enough fabric to make a little piece of Moomin-art too. And just a bit for a zippered pouch which goes to shop. Lovely.

Now I am off to St. Mary Mead again to have some tea with Miss M. I wish you a lovely evening too!

Five little ducks went out one day over the hill and far away...

I am seriously (three done, thirteen to go) sewing bags.

Special little bags for special little persons.
The bags to be filled with educational, traditional
and plain funny rhymes, songs and plays.
Memories for little persons to carry around while
they grow each day.

One of my loveliest sewing projects ever.

Seriously.
