I had a go at the small bag from Anni Downs book In the Life of a Bag. I'm rather pleased with how it turned out, but the zipper took a few goes to get right. It was folding/tucking the ends in neatly that gave me the willies. Not like dress or skirt zippers that are nice and flat.
It was very exciting on Sunday to see this twister when we looked out the window. It was amazing to watch it move across the sky, and how quickly it dissipated. Unusual weather for our area.
Lovely little bag! You did a good job. As for that twister,I hope it was over water, because although it looks spectacular, I'd hate to think it touched ground.
ReplyDeleteBTW - I'm using that niffy way you showed me to knot my thread. It makes a far neater knot than the twist-around-the-finger-and-pull-off method I used. Thank you
I'm glad the bag worked out well. Now I have to put that on my list of things I want to make. You'll have to make another one so you get better at zipperz. You'll be an old hand at it soon. Lynda.
