My first finish along finish of the quarter
Snappy blog post name, huh? đŸ˜‰
I’ve finished the unidentified present on my finish along list for my friend, which I will be gifting on Sunday. she does read my blog but I don’t know if she will over the next few days so I’m risking it and sticking this out there.
Yep, my third sew together bag as I’m sure you guessed. I like making these, except the cutting and interfacing bit. My friend Gina is the one who fixed my wedding dress disaster the night before we went away. Whilst I was at her house, I was hand sewing the binding down on the two I made for myself and she commented that she liked them, so I knew what I had to do!
I may make a few of these for Christmas gifts too- they’re great for toiletries on holiday and I have at least two recipients in mind….
The East Midlands Modern Quilt Group is making these with Di on Saturday but since I’ve made a few, I think I may soldier on with my IG Mini Swap hand sewing instead!

ah, that’s a sweet way to thank her. You can be my personal helper when I sew things upside down on Saturday. Shouldn’t you be taking the chevron HST quilt top though??

Oh, I do like this one made with fewer fabrics so much more than the ones I’ve seen made with a multitude of fabrics. I wonder if they would work using clear vinyl for the inside pockets.

I need Di to pop down to Cornwall and show me how this is done!! I’m sure your friend will love this.
