Sew productive :)

Have you ever have a day where you are just sewing along happily,
getting things checked off your "to do" list.....
and suddenly you realize you just sewed your bag upside down?
No?     Just me then :)

Luckily I caught it before I sewed the entire bag together. It was an easy fix and I finished it. Yes, I know this is yet again one of those cute re-usable Keyka Lou grocery bags. For those of you who actually read my blog on a regular basis, I'm sure you'll remember when I went through my Sweetwater apron phase. These are so FTS that I'll probably be boring you with more of these before I move on to something else :)

Love Love Love this fabric!
How cute are all the groceries? I used heavy weight natural canvas for the outside of the bag.

You would be the envy of every other shopper at
Whole Foods with a bag like this one!

I also took 5 pairs of little boys jammies that had holes in the knees and turned them into shorts for the warm nights we've been having and I made a pair of snugly jammie pants for my lovely daughter in law :)

And last but not least, one more Owlie bag for the shop.
Even with the upside down incident......it was a pretty productive day :)

  6. Nice job :-)!

    I love the fact that you share your mistakes as well as your creativeness :-)! It helps the novice like me know that it is OK to make mistakes, to just move on and keeping loving the project I am working on.
