Orders Completed and On To Something New

Today, it is on to something new.  I am testing Christine's (from Chris W Design) new bag.  If you go to her website here, you can win the pattern and the hardware to make it.  All you have to do is come up with the winning name.  But, you better hurry, the contest closes Saturday, August 30, 2014.

Before I start that project, though, I wanted to show you the completion of some of my orders.  I say some  because someone in this house I forgot to take a picture of the coffee fabric Zip and Go I delivered yesterday.  Thought I had already taken the picture.  Just goes to show you what happens when hubby is gone fishing and I sew around the clock.

(By the way, Happy 25th Anniversary to my wonderful husband!  They said it wouldn't last and here we are still going strong.  Love you babe!)

I finished the 8 Get Carded wallets by adding the red lips charms.  Thought you might want to see them completed.

I, also, completed a phone pouch for a larger Samsung phone.  This customer wanted a small crossbody bag that was small enough to just hold her phone and maybe a few dollars.  I played with several ideas and tried some free patterns I saw online but when I was not happy with the final result, I went back to a tried but true pattern, the Zip and Go.  I cut this bag to the dimensions I needed and I think it will work fine.

Here is the back.

Just so you can see how far I cut the bag down, here is the regular sized Zip and Go with the phone sized Zip and Go on top of it.

 

 

 

All of the bags shown here today are from Erin Erickson at Dog Under My Desk.  You can find her here.

 

Time to pick out the fabric for Christine's new bag.......
