Working on some Crockett Bags

So I haven't posted for a bit because I started two major bag projects. One of them is that I was teaching myself how to make the "Crockett" bag by Sallie Tomato. It's a slim sling bag. I prepped 5 different bags, using black canvas, a beige canvas and then 2 dragon canvas bags. I've started with the 2 black canvas bags. It's taken me a few weeks of just working on these bags. But I'm almost there. Along the way, I even taught myself how to do a pleated front pocket. Attached is the picture of the pieces that I've got put together up to today. I'm hoping I'll be able to to finish these two bags over the next few days and show you the finished bags. Attached is the picture of what the finished Crockett bag looks from Sallie Tomato's website.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Asian gold quilt

 Finished a quilt last week. I called it an Asian Gold quilt. I made this from a class I took at Sonflower Quilts, while they were open. We took our stash, cut strips and then turned those into quilts. I quilted this with a dark gray thread and used the quilting pattern Interlocking Loopy 2.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Hemingway Bags today!

 Today, my granddaughter and I sewed up 2 Hemingway bags. Good thing we have my Singer 15-91 (Ora Bell). She sewed through all the layers of foam, fabric, and zippers with no problem whatsoever.

3 dungeons and dragons zippy bags

 I'm sewing with friends for the next 3 days. Yesterday, I made 3 bags with a dungeons and dragons theme. I made the collaged fabric from bits of leftover fabric. They're a modified Zippy Strippy Bag from Atkinson Designs. I'll be adding dragon charms to the zipper pulls before they're done.
