Thank you for all the congratulations and well wishes on my new grandson, Finn! So far he is such a good baby, let's hope it lasts!
Yesterday I went over to help my daughter and brought a dinner for them. Maddy asked me to make her a new pouch for her markers.
When I got home she texted me and asked me to send her some pictures of pink and purple fabric so she could choose which ones she wanted. Many texts later, this is what she came up with.
She specifically asked for a pocket inside and a blue zipper. I added the tag so she will remember who made it (-:
I added the purple sparkly ribbon tag and a little butterfly charm to help open the zipper.
I was surprised to find this at JoAnne's today. Lotta Jansdotter fabric. It seems like a lot of the designers are going to the chain stores. It wasn't a bargain at $12.00+ a yard!
I thought I would give you an update on the auction I told you about here. They raised over $12,000 and my Sew Together Bag took in a bid for $170.00! There was a bid for $180.00 but she was too late. Needless to say I was very happy it did so well. So a nice lady in Belgium will be enjoying the fruits of my labor for a good cause. Congratulations Martine!

Can you share where you buy your little sew in tags with your company name on them? Are they printed on a roll and you just cut them off as used? They are such a wonderful finishing touch on your projects!!
