Work in progress

I currently have two My Little Sunshine Bags in construction. One of these is for a store at West End (2nd store on the Gold Coast) which has offered to stock some of my bags, and the other is an order for a family member. I do find special orders much more enjoyable as you have the person in mind the whole time you are sewing. It does tend to put me under a little extra pressure, however the result is often a better product.

This is a relatively complicated bag to make and takes 22 pieces (including 3 layers of interfacing) to put it together. Is it any wonder this ones takes over 4 hours! I do think it is worth it though....

I don't think I will ever tire of this fabric. It is from the Heather Bailey Pop Garden collection.
