More old posts, but new pictures. I bought this fabric ages ago from the bargain bin (both the outside and liner) and had been meaning to make a beach bag for ages. I finally got around to doing so. I’m quite happy with the way it came out. The outside fabric is some thick duck…
I see these dance skirts all around and I’ve always thought to myself, “I could make that.” So I had some extra lycra lying around. (Okay, actually I cut up a dress I made that went horribly wrong. Sorry there are no pictures of it, but it’s probably for the best.) It was all very…
So I finally got my new needle plate which means I can keep working on my Sophia bag. My new needle plate has inches, not millimeters which is so much more useful since almost all the patterns I have here are in inches. The machine (Husqvarna Viking Platinum 950e) was made in Europe though so…
