secret project

I’m working on my next project now. Can’t tell you what it is, it’s a surprise for someone. Boy, I hate unpicking. I’m just saying. I’d hoped to get it finished tonight, it’s too hot, and my unpicker has had more than enough of a workout. I’m done for now. Back on Monday, after a weekend away in Hepburn Springs.

I think I feel an A List Material post coming on!

Held up by a button!

About an hour ago I finished working on my City Shopper bag. I’ve done all I can do now, everything’s ready to be put together. The strap’s even on. The pocket in the lining is all done. Everything‘s done – except!

I haven’t got the right button for this bag. That wooden button I originally thought would be perfect, isn’t at all. Wrong look altogether. And until I get a button, and sew it on, I cannot finish the last step in the process – sewing the lining onto the facing. So frustrating! But I won’t rush it now. The right button is worth waiting for, don’t you think?

Spent yesterday deliberating over fabrics, and trying to answer the question, “should I make another Wristlet, or go straight to the City Shopper?” I went to bed with fabrics and scissors on my mind, and woke up settled on these fabrics, and yeah, the City Shopper!

The body of the bag is in this beautiful Ink & Spindle fabric, the top flap is in this one, and the lining is this Liberty Tana Lawn print. It’s all interfaced, notched, wadded, and ready to go. And it’s only 9am. Well what else would a girl do when she wakes up at 4am and can’t get back to sleep???

I finished it this morning, and wore it out to lunch. I love it!
