Lovely kind comments.......

Thank you all for your lovely kind comments yesterday with the scary bunnies.  On Tuesday after I did my housework, I set about finding another bunny pattern and sewing some more bunnies.  I found this pattern for a Snuggle Bunny and I love it.  They are so cute, and best of all I made them all with flannel I had on hand.  The poor bunny on the left's nose is upside down!!

 Daughter-in-law gets together with some friends who have children all a similar age, so I'll drop over all the bunnies to her for the babies.

I then decided to make Liam a small messenger bag.  He is now starting to put things in and out of containers, so thought that the bag would help him with his dexterity.  I put one of the regular children's messenger bag next to his to show how much smaller his is.  There is a little velcro dot to fasten it.

Then I decided to tackle another of Carla's Slimline Wallets.  I had a little bit of fabric leftover from my slingalong bag.  I decided to use a piece of black/blue linen I had on hand for the outside.  I love this one.

All in all I had a good day.  Got housework done, found time to sew and then the sun actually came out later in the day!!!

Slimline Wallet............

I have an "internet friend," I have known for years.  First met her through the blogs.  She has her own sewing business and sews some amazing things.  Her name is Carla, and her Facebook page is Carla's Creations.  She has published a couple of patterns, which you can buy here.

One of the "big" patterns to hit the market over the past couple of years is the Necessary Clutch.  I find that too cumbersome for me.  Carla made her own pattern for a Slimline Wallet, so finally I decided to give it a try.  

I have to say the instructions are really easy to follow and I was so pleased with my first attempt:

 I love how there are numerous pockets for my various cards.  The zippered section is great for my change, and I pop any notes I have behind the zippered pocket.

I will be making more of these, and may try the Mini Slimline one next.
