FNSI Results :)

Last night was another Friday NightSew In and I took full
advantage of my hubby being outside
smoking his cigar with the guys :)
They were out there until almost midnight
so I got ALOT done!
I was just stitching up the last heart 
when he came inside.
I find soooo much inspiration
by reading other blogs and Pinterest :)
Faye from Carolina Stitcher makes
beautiful Primitive project bags
that she makes and sells on her blog.
So  last week I used my "Don't fear the Zipper" pattern
and just enlarged it to make my own version.
These bags are wonderful for 
keeping your stitching projects safe 
and out of reach of crazy dogs.....just sayin :)
Last night I made 5 more.
They measure 11" by 13"
and are fully lined and padded.
Each one has a hand stitched 
wool felt heart as a zipper pull.
4 of them are made from high quality cotton
and one is made from Linen.
I am offering these bags for $25.00 
(includes shipping in the USA,
 International orders pay actual shipping costs)
and if you are interested,
please email me.
