Winter Is Here!

It is freezing here today, I am not leaving the house unless absolutely necessary! I finished up my 2nd Sew Together bag. The colors feel very cheerful!

I really do spend a lot of time picking out just the right fabrics. I wanted it to be something the ladies would like. The colorful zippers are so much fun.

I had a lot of comments about the label. I didn't make it but bought them through an etsy site called,  Emily Ann's Kloset. She has many designs and other things that you might enjoy. I put some fusible on the back and then stitched around the edges.

I didn't put this on mine but now wish I had! It's a place to keep your pins or needles.

I also finished off the edges of the zippers to give it a cleaner look.

I am almost out of the pin fabric but figured it was a perfect piece for a sewing bag.

This is not a hard bag to make, but you must concentrate and it is not a quick project. Once again I chose to sew down the binding around the long zipper by hand. It does not take long and I like the way it looks.

Congratulations to Longwood Gardens for the best restroom in the world award! It is fantastic and well deserved this is a must see in person if you ever get the chance.

Okay now for something fun...... last summer I did a survey on what was your favorite color, everyone seemed to like it a lot. I thought it would be fun to try and guess what the Pantone color of the year will be for 2015. I can't possibly list every color so, send me your guesses and in 1 week I will use those to put up the survey. I will put up as many as it allows. There could be a giveaway involved, I'm just saying......
My vote is for classic blue.

Revison....go here to see the colors.........Start voting it ends 12/13/14. Go up to the right hand side of the blog and vote!
