The Tote

Well folks, the six hours I spent at G Street Fabrics on Sunday may be considered among some of the best of my life. Ok, maybe a little exaggerated. But it was indeed thrilling! I was actually giddy! A dream, realized!

There were four other women in my class and our instructor was fabulous. To begin, the instructor walked us around the store floor where we were able to choose our own fabric and she could make sure we purchased the correct materials. Then, we got to work. Learned how to use the machines (the most intimidating part!) and the basics. The results are below. I'm so proud. So proud that I refuse to actually use  the tote, and prefer to just stare at it. Can you frame bags?

Next Class Project: Pajama Pants. Stay tuned!

It even has a pocket in the front a la Lands' End.

And don't forget the lining!

My fabric is actually upholstery remnants.

It's pretty big. But doesn't exactly go with my pajamas.
