The tote for Mouthy Stitches 2 swap.
I can't say much as I don't want to give away who this is going to, but I'm hoping my partner will love it. I really enjoyed making it. I had a hard time finding some contrasting lining fabric but I think the Tilda print works well.
Meanwhile back to the never ending grind of unpacking boxes and trying to find a place for everything.
It's really gorgeous Marg. lovely job. And haven't you become quite the swapper :)
ReplyDeleteGood luck with all your unpacking!
That is super cute! Wish I were your partner, but alas, I'm not in on that. I don't know if I have the confidence to join. Good luck with all the unpacking .. it'll get done, eventually.
ReplyDeleteI wish I was in your swap! This bag is gorgeous. Still more boxes?

Beautiful bag, what is the lining fabric? I love the hexagon keyring, I love EPP and I am currently in the proess of making a union jack quilt with hexagons, it may take a few years!
